2019 R2L NextGen
Hometown: Los Angeles, California
School: East Los Angeles Renaissance Academy
“I came into the R2L Next Gen program as a shy, nervous, and uneducated individual. Throughout this amazing week, I met wonderful Latinx leaders who inspired me to be more involved in my community and in politics. This experience has made me an individual who is determined and confident to make a change and let my community’s voice be heard. This program is wonderful, and I will never forget these lifelong friendships and memories.”
