Cristina Jiménez
About: Cristina Jiménez is an Ecuadorian immigrant who has diligently worked to help young immigrants achieve tertiary education, obtain several unbeknownst benefits, and much more. During Jiménez’s adolescence in America, she found it arduous to pursue much of anything since she battled with the limitations of being an immigrant. Fortunately, through immense support and encouragement from her family, she continued to fight against numerous boundaries and challenged those who dared say “No” to her dreams.
Jiménez was a voice for Lintions, everywhere, within her university, and actively continued to do so even after graduating from Queens College, City University of New York (CUNY). Today Jiménez is a managing director of the United We Dream network, an activist for young immigrants, and an active participant of several networks.
