Jan Quijada
BA from University of California in Irvine, CA / MA from Stanford University in Stanford, CA
Prior to coming to DCPS, Jan worked with first generation and undocumented students through the Office of Diversity, Inclusion and Multicultural Education at George Mason University. Originally from the Philippines, Jan is fluent in Visayan, Tagalog and English. When not advocating for student equity and immigration reform, you can find pre-quarantine Jan at your local milk tea cafe or at the next anime convention. “The best part of college was getting to explore my identity as an immigrant and an Asian American, either through taking ethnic studies classes or dancing (badly) at Filipino culture nights.”
