She can talk about anything and will captivate everyone's attention as a leader that she is. I look forward to work with her in the future!

I met Angelina while we were mentees at LegalEEE, a legal mentoring program designed to provide support for aspiring attorneys. As I got to know Angelina more, I started seeing how smart and passionate she is about inequality in the health care system. She is so focused on learning more and educating her peers about America's health care system. I strongly believe that her education at UC Davis would strengthen her advocacy for equality in the health care system.
