Michelle grew up in South Texas and graduated from UC Berkeley with a BS in energy engineering. Through her classes and experiences at Berkeley, she developed a passion for environmental justice and aims to aid lower income and underserved communities to receive access to basic needs such as clean water and air, energy, and a healthy environment. She was also a project manager for Cal Enviro and a member of Solar Spring Break where she was exposed to many Bay Area nonprofits. She is excited to work with Thrive Alliance and Stanford as an AmeriCorps VISTA.
