Hayley graduated from the UC Berkeley with a B.A. in Legal Studies and minors in Race and the Law and Chicanx Studies.
During her undergraduate studies, Hayley interned at Berkeley Law's Death Penalty Clinic, the Los Angeles Public Defender's Office and the ACLU Smart Justice Campaign. These experiences, along with what she observed in her own community, solidified her commitment to disrupting cycles of violence, understanding that those who commit harm have often been harmed themselves. During her free time, Hayley loves cruising through Los Angeles while listening to her favorite oldies and attending concerts with her loved ones.
