About
Born and raised in Fresno, California, Kassy Vang (she/her) is the youngest daughter of Hmong refugees. She obtained her Bachelor of Arts in Public Health and Ethnic Studies from UC Berkeley where she participated in mentorships and outreach efforts of Southeast Asian and Hmong student organizations to bridge the gap between higher education and students of color. After graduating, Kassy joined UC Berkeley Destination College Advising Corps (DCAC) as a College Advising Fellow (CAF), providing college preparation services to first-generation, low-income, and underrepresented high school students in the Bay Area through Boost@BerkeleyHaas.
As the Academic Advising Graduate Intern, Kassy will be supporting the undergraduate major and minor advising services. Kassy aims to provide a safe space for students to feel comfortable seeking guidance as she understands that navigating the complexities of a large public institution can be a challening process.
