Career planning & financial literacy

Hi there, I’m Ruby Mejia-Perez, the founder of Puerta Abierta, a mission-driven ed-tech platform dedicated to empowering first-generation individuals through financial literacy education and mentorship. As a proud first-gen Latina and UC Irvine graduate, I created Puerta Abierta to bridge the gap between education and real-world financial empowerment—transforming my lived experience into lasting impact. I’m a builder, speaker, and relentless advocate for equitable access to financial tools and the confidence to use them.

College planning & financial literacy

Hi! I am Daniyal Rauf, a student at UC Irvine and a member of the ANTrepreneur Center. I founded OC Mentors - a student-led platform focused on mentorship, tutoring, and training. After overcoming my own academic challenges, I started a company to make learning more accessible for students struggling like I did. I've tutored hundreds of students to unlock their full potential. Now I’m on a mission to not only tutor, but mentor and change how we support student success, including financial literacy and career planning.
