During her first and second year at college, she worked as the HEP (High School Equivalency Program) financial and administrative intern. She found her passion in activism, specifically in the school system. Nancy was also part of the Spanish Debate Team. In addition, she was the Migrant StudenUnion’s former secretary and recruiter, where she advocates for migrant and Latinx students to make a difference in their campuses and communities.
