Vanessa Luna Biography

A Dreamer herself, Vanessa Luna cofounded ImmSchools in 2017 to provide 1,000 educators the training needed to support the needs of 30,000 undocumented students and their families nationwide. The Teach for America alumna is also a founding member of TFA's DACA National Board and a 2018 fellow at VC firm Camelback Ventures.

Luna immigrated to the U.S. at the age of ten from Lima, Peru and grew up undocumented in NY. She was the first one in her family to graduate from college and her undocumented experience deeply impacted her choice for a career in Education. In 2014, she joined Teach For America and taught in Los Angeles and NYC, where she witnessed the need to provide greater support for the immigrant community within our schools. Luna holds a BA from Binghamton University and an MA in Urban Education and Policy from Loyola Marymount University. She was awarded the 2016 Urban Education Student Researcher of the Year Award for her research on the threat of deportation and its impact on middle school students. She has served as a founding member of Teach For America DACA Advisory board, was a Camelback Ventures Fellow and a Roddenberry Foundation Fellow. In 2019, she was selected as Forbes 30 under 30 in Education and an inaugural TIME 100 Next listmaker for her work and leadership in developing inclusive schools for immigrant families. Luna is a nationally recognized leader in the intersection of immigration and education, and has been featured in The New York Times, ABC Nightline, Forbes, TIME and Ed Week. Luna is inspired by her parents and the immigrant community to fight for educational equity and immigrant justice.
