Jade Ocampo
Growing up in Chicago’s Belmont Cragin neighborhood, Jade Ocampo never imagined that her post-high school journey would take her into the world of quantum research, professional engineering societies, and national internships.
Alicia Gregorio grew up in Mexico but has called West Humboldt Park home for many years.
She was thrilled to learn about the free opportunity to enroll in Adult Education courses at Truman College and prepare to earn her high school diploma.
Having achieved that goal, Alicia is now excited to pursue a degree in finance. She hopes to use her education to help her community better understand budgeting and saving for retirement.
