Paola is a Dispatch Manager at Rideshare2Vote. She is in her final year at the University of Texas at Arlington and working towards a bachelor’s degree in Critical Languages and International Studies with a focus in Mandarin Chinese. Her activism work began in 2018 when she became a fellow at a Congressional campaign. During her time on the campaign trail, she saw voters were eager to vote but did not have transportation to the polls. She brought this up to her mother, and the idea of Rideshare2Vote formed. She has now become part of Dispatch Operations and hopes to continue fighting against voter suppression.
