Empowered. Resilient. Passionate. Resourceful. Community-minded. Determined. Si se puede✊🏽Currently pursuing a bachelor’s degree in educational studies to further my expertise in advocating for educational equity and early childhood development. Born and raised in Moses Lake, WA, I obtained an associate’s degree in early childhood education, which laid the foundation for my career in addressing barriers faced by immigrant families striving for the "American Dream." My journey into early learning advocacy was shaped by firsthand experiences with language barriers in Washington households, particularly those where English is not the dominant language. As a parent myself, I recognizes the critical importance of Early Childhood Development in supporting families. My extensive background in family social services spans over ten years, during which I witnessed challenges within the education system and the struggles of parents navigating these issues.I share a commitment to grassroots initiatives and community empowerment because it all starts with hope and belief!My advocacy work encompasses immigrant rights, economic justice, education equity, and youth development for higher education, reflecting my dedication to creating a more inclusive and equitable educational environment in Washington state.
