Kaitlyn Majlesi

Kaitlyn Majlesi is a pre-law student at the University of California, Davis, studying Political Science and Sociology. She is an active member of the Davis Pre-Law Society and the Girl Up United Nations Foundation, and works as a volunteer with Companions Journeying Together to support justice-impacted families and incarcerated individuals. She recently completed an internship with TurnUp Activism, where she focused on civic engagement and youth participation, working to make voting more accessible in her community. Kaitlyn plans to attend law school and pursue a career in public interest law, with a focus on criminal justice reform, youth advocacy, and equity in both the legal and education systems. Outside of her work, she enjoys teaching and tutoring young students, graphic design, event planning, and spending time with loved ones. Through her internship with the Davis Vanguard, she is eager to deepen her understanding of how the courts impact marginalized communities and to build the skills needed to become an impactful advocate and leader.
