Guadalupe Martinez
Guadalupe graduated from City University of New York (CUNY), Queens College, with a BA in English and minors in Spanish and History. Her thesis examined retellings of La Llorona, a Mexican folklore, in contemporary young adult literature and explored how these narratives connect to Gloria Anzaldúa’s theory of 
conocimiento. Building on this foundation, she hopes to continue her studies of Latinx Literature, Indigenous studies, and literary translation at Villanova.
After graduation, Guadalupe worked as a grant writer for a New York City nonprofit, helping secure funding for after-school programs, winter sports initiatives, supportive housing in Brooklyn and Bronx communities.
In her free, she enjoys hiking, swimming, reading, and attending Broadway shows.
