I grew up as an immigrant in Spain.
I knew firsthand what it felt like to be singled out as different. To not know a language. To be “othered.” From a young age, I understood what it meant to be marginalized and how that inequity can affect every aspect of one’s life. These experiences made me passionate about equity and about making sure everyone has access to everything they need, no matter who they are or where they come from.
