GiGi is a graduate of Pomona College in Claremont, CA, with a bachelor's degree in theatre performance and a certificate of study in environmental analysis. As a young American Indian artist and woman (Tongva and Mescalero), she creates and contributes to art that uplifts marginalized voices, and shares stories of creation, resilience, and beauty from frontline communities. Her professional aspirations lie at the intersection of art and climate justice -- GiGi hopes to build a platform that celebrates her cultures, her activism, and her passion for sharing art.
