Yamileth at the Precollege Bridge Program ceremony for our PCDP students graduating with their bachelor's degreesYamileth (she/her) is one of our new graduates who double majored in Ethnic Studies and Leadership & Community Engagement, and minored in Sociology and Spanish. 

How did PCDP influence and prepare you for the future?

PCDP was a guide towards higher education. They provided me with a community and now I've been able to help others as a peer advisor.

What’s your favorite PCDP memory?

My favorite PCDP memories come from the 5 week summer program. This was the first time I was able to picture myself at CU Boulder.

What are some of your goals after graduation?

I'll be pursuing my master's in Educational Foundations, Policy & Practice. Some of my goals are to expand Ethnic Studies in K-12 schools and empower youth to use their voices by working in education.

Tell us a fun fact about yourself:

I was a research assistant and got to travel to Canada to present in a conference
