Education

After barely graduating high school, I enrolled in community college but was removed due to non-attendance, leading to self-doubt about my potential as a student. I then worked full-time in my dad’s gardening business for a year until I recognized the importance of attaining a college education. During this time, a friend introduced me to Chicano/a Studies, sparking my interest. In the following academic year, I enrolled in the course which reignited my passion, and successfully transferred and graduated from UCLA, driven by my newfound passion for Chicano/a Studies and History.
