Stephanie Mancilla Palomo

Stephanie is a first generation Mexican American UCSC alumna and the first in her family to earn a college degree. She transferred to UC Santa Cruz and graduated with a bachelor’s degree in Environmental Studies, with a concentration in Conservation Science and Policy.

Stephanie began her journey as a member of the Education for Sustainable Living Program, later serving as a course facilitator for the Spring 2023 Speaker Series. When the previous advisor transitioned out, she stepped in to help reunite Enviroslug and worked closely with members to continue advancing sustainability efforts on campus.
