Born and raised in Queens, New York, Clarissa Delgado has a passion for supporting students as they navigate their postsecondary journeys. She believes that equitable access to higher education is key to empowering our underserved communities to not just have a seat at the table, but to have the confidence to know they belong there. As Coordinator of College Guidance & Transition, Clarissa leads high-impact, student-driven programming to guide OppNet Fellows through the college decision process, from helping students develop their "best fit" lists to navigating scholarships and financial aid. When not working, you can find her listening to music, watching horror movies, or sipping on an iced coffee, even in winter.
