Alejandra Colon, a proud Latina and 2018 graduate of UC Berkeley, has continued to honor her heritage through her work and community involvement. She remains an active member of the UC Berkeley Chicanx Latinx Alumni Association, and has served on the executive boards of both the Orange County and Los Angeles chapters. 

In 2024, Alejandra has embraced a year of growth, self-reflection, and deep commitment to work that aligns with her personal journey. "I'm always eager to learn and am constantly thinking about how we can work together to create a more just and compassionate society," she shared. "Right now, I'm focused on three key themes: consistency, intentionality, and getting comfortable with the uncomfortable. I'm approaching these in a way that's true to my path, working to become a stronger version of myself so I can better serve my community and continue to be the fierce advocate I aspire to be."
