Policy and Field Coordinator

Andrea Nicolette Segovia

"Being a proud bisexual Latinx woman is something I hold near to my heart. I put those identities in every part of my work in our community. To help some of the most marginalized communities use their voice and see the importance of their individual power is something I can say with pride that I do each and every day. I am a native Texan and while this state and the leaders of it might not share my same beliefs I love and cherish so many of the people I get to work alongside with."
