Jeane DeLaney, Ph.D. Executive Director

Scott Dilley Secretary

Enrique Gastelum Treasurer

Jeane DeLaney grew up on a farm in North Carolina and began her study of Latin America as an undergraduate at UNC-Chapel Hill.  In 1990 she received her doctorate at Stanford University and spent the next thirty years in academia teaching and writing about Latin America.   After retirement, she developed a strong interest in the H-2A program, which allowed her to connect her passion for all things Latin American with her farming roots.   A volunteer at WAFLA since 2022, she is one of the co-founders of Field to Future.

Scott Dilley is the public affairs director at WAFLA. Scott has more than 20 years of public policy experience and expertise in labor and employment matters. Scott received a bachelor's degree in government from Centre College and a master's degree from the Assemblies of God Theological Seminary. A co-founder of Field to Future, Scott is a native of Oxford, Miss., and now lives on a farm near Montesano, Wash., with his wife and children. 

Enrique Gastelum is the chief executive officer at WAFLA and is a champion of promoting the sustainability of labor-intensive agriculture across the Pacific Northwest. His background in a farmworker family, his time spent as a government labor law regulator and educator, and his work as CFO of Washington Farm Bureau have provided him with a unique perspective that balances the labor needs of seasonal employers with the rights and dignities of workers. He holds a Bachelor of Science in zoology and an MBA in public administration.
