Wish submitted by:

Emilia has been a part of the Guardian Scholars Program since 2018. After spending most of her life in foster care, Emilia has navigated significant life transitions, and she has built a strong foundation of stability and support through her mentor, her sister, and her CASA. Emilia is a passionate animal lover, caring for her own pets while working in dog grooming and pet care. An adventurous spirit with a playful sense of humor, she enjoys skateboarding and approaches life with creativity, warmth, and resilience. She came to San Francisco State to explore cinema and dreams of making a difference, potentially through social work or other helping professions in the future.

Emilia started work as a barista recently and wants to cut back on Starbucks costs. She would love to make her own fancy drinks at home. An Nespresso machine will help her to have Starbucks at her house every morning!
