Paola Campos

Paola is a first-generation Mexican-American born and raised in San José, California. Inspired by the altruistic community-building efforts of her maternal grandparents, she began working in the educational nonprofit sector in 2021, following her graduation with a B.A. in English Literature from San José State University.

Paola is passionate about investing her time and efforts in developing resources that aim to uplift individuals who have been historically marginalized. As she became increasingly aware of local social issues—and their disproportionate impact on Latinos—her advocacy expanded to include economic justice (particularly for Latinas), housing justice, and volunteering for local political campaigns.

In her free time, Paola also enjoys reading, cooking, traveling, and spending time with friends and family.
