Isabel was born in Salinas, California as the first child of Mexican immigrant parents. Her grandparents immigrated to the US with her parents in order to achieve what countless immigrants today desire – a better future for their children and future generations. Her commitment to work with underrepresented communities is rooted in her desire to advocate for immigrant rights and family reunification, as well as serve the same area she grew up in. Isabel graduated from Monterey College of Law. Her host organization is Catholic Charities Diocese of Monterey (CCDOM).
