Vianey E Bueno-Becknell
Director of Events
Born in Mexico City at the Central Military Hospital. Though she once believed her birth there was due to her father’s connections, she recently discovered it was actually because her maternal grandfather was a veteran of the Mexican Revolution—an important and meaningful piece of her heritage.
Her passion for community service began early, as a proud member of Club Leoin Mexico—the youth division of the International Lions Club—where she dedicated time to helping people in need and supporting local initiatives. This spirit of service has guided her throughout her life.
Professionally, Vianey worked at the renowned University of El Claustro de Sor Juana with Carmen Beatriz Lopez-Portillo and later served as a publicity assistant for the prestigious Festival Internacional Cervantino, one of Latin America’s most celebrated cultural festivals. These experiences deepened her love for culture, communication, and community building.
Since moving to Virginia in 2000, Vianey has continued to uplift others and serve her community. As the Director of Events for the Hispanic Chamber of Coastal Virginia, she brings people together with heart and purpose, championing heritage, service, and connection through inclusive and vibrant programming.
