G Alvarado B’20 is a multidisciplinary artist whose work spans writing, poetry, animation, filmmaking, music, and photography. Of Sicilian and Colombian descent, his multicultural heritage—combined with early influences like jazz, classic films, and baseball—has shaped his distinctive creative voice. But it was his Jesuit education at Bellarmine that played a key role in forming not only his talents, but also his values, worldview, and deep commitment to storytelling with purpose.

While at Bellarmine, G was immersed in student life and lived out the Grad at Grad ideals through meaningful involvement across campus. He served as a Eucharistic Minister, ASB Student Senate member, and Retreat Leader for Pilgrimage, Encounter, and Sophomore Retreats. He supported events like the Gala and Open House, engaged in diversity and leadership conferences, and welcomed new students through Link Crew. His dedication was recognized with the 110% Award (2018), Grad at Grad: Committed to Doing Justice (2019), and the Mr. Bellarmine Award and Class Speaker honor at graduation.

Today, G continues to build a bold, imaginative portfolio—one that blends art and advocacy, faith and creativity. We're proud to feature his journey, in his own words, in this month’s Alumni Spotlight.
