Gabriela "Gaby" Beas is a first generation Mexican-American, the daughter of migrant farm workers, with roots in both Solana Beach and Encinitas. As the first in her family to pursue higher education, Gaby received an A.A. degree from MiraCosta College and was awarded the Latino HealthCare Professional Project (LHPP) fellowship at California State University Long Beach. During her time at CSU Long Beach, Gaby gained extensive experience in community advocacy while working to eliminate healthcare disparities. After completing a bachelor’s degree in healthcare administration, she shifted her focus from healthcare to education and has since continued the long and passionate work of eliminating educational disparities, championing equality, and empowering communities. To her success, she credits her time at MiraCosta College. “I had a mentor at MiraCosta who saw something in me, something I hadn’t yet discovered, and she had me apply for the fellowship. Because of her, a seed was planted, which later became the passion and purpose for my career. That is why I have returned to MiraCosta. I want to pass on the gift that I was given. I want to help guide others to find their passion so they too can discover their purpose.”

Elvert (Outreach Assistant)
Hello my name is Elvert Vasquez, I was born and raised in Solana Beach, California.
Both of my parents are from Puebla Mexico and I am the first person in my family to
graduate from a 4 year university. I went UC San Diego and doubled majored in International
Business and Communication. Thanks to MiraCosta College I was able to pursue a higher
education and it opened my eyes to many different opportunities. Working as a Student
Ambassador has helped develop my professionalism and leadership skills. I used to
be the most shy person in the room and it has allowed me to grow into the person that
I am today. It gave me the courage and ambition to put myself into other leadership
positions such as being in Associated Student Government, and the Honors Program.
Currently, I hope to follow a career in human resources and in real estate business.
Major: International Business/Communication
Future Goals: I plan to work within Human Resources and work on getting into real estate
