Angela’s passion for advancing positive social change stems from the legal and political challenges and systematic barriers she witnessed, learned about, and faced personally and within her community. After finishing her undergraduate degree at University of California Berkeley, she began her journey in the nonprofit sector to tackle these challenges. Most recently, as a Litigation Assistant at the ACLU of Northern California, Angela worked in Immigrants’ Rights, Racial and Economic Justice, and Voting Rights issue teams. Angela is excited to participate in this year’s cohort and hopes to use the skills and experiences gained from this fellowship to promote social change.
