Marvin Duarte

I grew up in a strong Roman Catholic family and immigrated to Canada over 22 years ago. I have lived in the wonderful community of Milton for the past 15+ years with my wife and three children – my youngest son presently studies in the HCDSB system while my oldest son and daughter have graduated and now study at McGill University and the University of Toronto.

We are extremely fortunate to have had the opportunity to raise our children in a vibrant and diverse community such as Milton where our Catholic values are strongly intertwined within our schools.

I hold a Bachelor of Engineering Degree in Electrical Engineering, which led me to work in global high-tech firms for over 32 years. Currently, I work for a global defense company in Waterdown.

As well as the Board of Trustees, I sit on the Board of Directors for the Halton Catholic Children’s Education Foundation, where I use my knowledge to help best support our students.

Over the past decade, I have been greatly involved with many schools and youth programs in Milton and I am passionately committed to student success, supporting Catholic faith initiatives in the HCDSB system while being accountable to our families.

In my spare time, I volunteer and work with youth programs and am often seen helping out at both Milton Parishes. I also like to travel and play badminton.

I look forward to serving the Milton community as your Catholic School Trustees Ward 1 & 4 for another 4 year term.
