Bio
Niña Abonal, MA
I served as Bianca's Mentor Coach for 2 years through America Needs You, which is a non-profit organization that fights for economic mobility for first-generation college students by providing mentorship and career development. When I first met Bianca, she was a bright-eyed sophomore majoring in sociology, but she was unsure about what she truly wanted to do as a career. She was, however, sure about her passion for helping others and making an impact in her community. During my years as her Mentor Coach, she was open to all possibilities and eager to learn from others and explore all her options. She always showed up prepared to all our check-ins and was engaged in the putting in the work to further her career development through workshops and assignments. Throughout the years, I've had the privilege to watch Bianca grow into an amazing young lady who has exponential potential to make an impact in her community. She is a natural go-getter who seeks constant self-improvement and growth by taking on roles that align with her values, interests, and passions. What's more impressive is her ability to balance a full-time academic schedule while working multiple jobs and remaining fully committed to succeeding. I have no doubt that Bianca will add great value to any organization she works for after she graduates college.
