Okay. So this is Sylvia. Sylvia was one of my first friends in law school. When I came in late to our first class on the first day of school she texted me that she saved me a seat. Chatting, laughing, and sometimes learning about torts with Sylvia was a highlight of my first semester!

This week I had the honor of meeting the first Latino California Supreme Court Justice, the Honorable Cruz Reynoso. I aspire to become a justice one day, but without trailblazers like him, that idea would never have occurred to me.

March 2, 2018
Better late than never! I met Monica at Berkeley Law through the Women of Color Collective. WOCC has been one of my sanctuaries on campus. Being a student in an institution designed to exclude me has been challenging. But, being a part of this group incredible women has spun that challenge into empowerment. Having Monica at the helm, as co-chair, has been so inspiring. She has such a bubbly personality, infectious laugh, and eagerness to love everyone. Monica’s passion and dedication to supporting her people is so obvious in everything she does. Monica shared that she lives for her deliberately chosen family, the people that she has experienced the bounties, joys, challenges, adventures, and deep love with which give her life meaning. And if you are thinking (like I am) how could she get any more awesome, get ready… she has a kitten.

Hair is such a mutable feature. It can be cut, dyed, curled, straightened, covered, tied back, left loose. Hair is something that most people don’t think twice about being without.

This is my cousin Christopher. He just started high school. I talked to him about his goals for the year of 2018 and he said that his primary goal was to get good grades so that he could go to a top college and leave the Bay Area for somewhere warmer.
