Lupita Romo-González is an intern on the Higher Education team. She recently graduated from UC Berkeley where she majored in sociology and minored in public policy and Chicanx/Latinx studies. While at UC Berkeley, she formed part of various research projects where she analyzed how education opportunities can improve for first-generation, low-income and students of color.
