Bio:

Hello! My name is Kelly and I go to San Jose State University. I am a third-year majoring in Justice Studies with an intended minor in Economics. When I am not doing things related to school, I am exploring new places to eat, reading autobiographies, and binge-watching Netflix! I wanted to become an advisor because I understand how overwhelming the college application process can be for students. Many first-gen Punjabi and Sikh students come from households where their parents work blue-collar jobs and have sacrificed a lot. Therefore, students who take the step to pursue higher education and create a better life deserve guidance and support. As a first-gen student myself, I hope to connect with enthusiastic people so we can empower each other and rise together as a community!
