About Evangelina

Hello! My name is Evie, I have a B. S. in Chemistry with a concentration in biochemistry from UC Santa Cruz. While in college I participated in research involving cell cycle regulation as a lens to study cancer. I also tutored in biology and chemistry courses for one year while I was studying at my local community college, Southwestern, before transferring to UCSC. After graduating, I worked as a math tutor at San Ysidro High school for a year, specializing in Integrated math 1 and Integrated math 2. I am passionate about uplifting young minds so that they know they are capable of achieving their goals and dreams. It is important for me that young adults feel that they have a place in academia and can thrive in the STEM field, regardless if they are the first to study science, math, or technology, or regardless if they are the first in their family to go to college.
