About Rona Marie L.
As a first-generation and queer student at UC Berkeley, I bring a personal connection to the issues I\'m passionate about. My degree in Political Economy with a minor in Data Science fuels my commitment to enhancing financial literacy and access to mental health resources for marginalized communities, especially those affected by the immigration system. My commitment to social justice is a personal passion and a proactive effort. I actively seek out collaborations with various organizations and leaders, gaining valuable experience while making a lasting impact on underserved populations. I aim to improve access to essential resources by bridging policy and practical solutions. I\'m always eager and open to connecting with others who share my passion for social justice and community initiative. Let’s collaborate to make a difference!
