Meet Emily P.
Her Transfer Story
My pursuit of higher education was coupled with lots of self-doubt and fear of failure. In high school, I decided not to apply to any colleges despite being a part of the AVID program, but I was still determined to find other ways of getting into a four year. I am beyond thankful for my 17-year-old self for taking the time to stop and think and breathe. My journey at NVC helped me fine-tune my interests into a major and later helped me decide on a second major. I was at NVC for two years and then transferred to UC Davis, where I double majored in Political Science and Chicanx Studies. My educational background and ties to the community of Napa aided me in securing a job right out of college.
I currently work at local non-profit helping folks undergoing domestic violence and sexual assault file and navigate the restraining order process.
Additionally, I am preparing to study for the law school entrance exam and plan to apply next year. This could not have been possible without the help of my mentors at SSS Trio and the amazing professors at NVC.
