Throughout her time at The University of Maryland, Felicia participated in the expansion and development of the Latino-Interest publication La Voz Latina. The bilingual publication focuses on campus, local and nation news related to the Latino community. La Voz is a multimedia publication that is published in print, magazine, online and video format.
Garay-Stanton started out as a staff writer for the publication in 2008 during her freshman year and quickly moved up the ranks ultimately landing her into the position of editor-in-chief her Junior and Senior year (Spring 2010- Spring 2012).
Under her leadership, La Voz Latina implemented special edition magazines related to major events occurring both locally and nationally, such as the Dream Act, and developed the annual Diversity Debate, which created an outlet for University of Maryland's diverse student body to question student leadership on issues that affected the campus communities.
