White House Chief of Staff Linda Vasquez is a valued employee to Garrett Walker, the President of the United States.
Biography
She is Cuban-American. Underwood describes her as "tough as a two-dollar steak.”
Vasquez has at least one son, Ruben, who wanted to attend to Stanford University. She feels guilty when Ruben receives a rejection letter from Stanford since she was more focused on Garrett Walker's presidential campaign during the last year and her son's grades went down. Frank Underwood gets Gillian Cole to talk to the admissions office, and Ruben is subsequently accepted. Vasquez tells Frank that Ruben was admitted to Stanford and she knows it was because of him.
Behind the Scenes
