Project Manager, Web Designer, and Social Media Manager: Joselyn Luna
Hi, my name is Joselyn Luna and I am a seventeen year old who goes to West Adams Preparatory High School. I joined the GBLA team because I wanted to make a difference in our community. Being so young and having the chance to make a difference is something everyone should take advantage of. Being a part of a generation that is very open to many things is something I am truly grateful for being born in; if I were from any past generation I know I wouldn't have had the chance to be in such a great program such as Girls Build LA because women weren't seen with the same value men were seen in. This generation is the reason for me believing in the things I do now, it is the reason I stand up to people who want to be sexist, racist, etc... and having programs like GBLA will only make future generations so much greater than mine.

Hello, my name is Violeta Hernandez-Tomas and I'm a junior at West Adams Preparatory High School. I was recently asked by the GSA Network “what are you doing to improve your community?” and to be frank nothing that I was doing stood out. I work with LGBT+ youth for racial and gender justice with that said I want to contribute in other ways as well. Now I'm joining the GBLA team as a way to further help and impact my community.
