Claudia Martinez-Fritzges (She, Her, Ella)

My personal mission is to ensure that Partnership students have access to high-quality programs that nurture their academic curiosities, elevate their voices, build their experiences and get them to and through college. Our team values community experiences, relationships, the importance of sustainable impact and a whole-child centered approach. I started my career as a college advisor in a high need district school and held roles in youth leadership development, supplemental education program management, adult education and advocacy, and capacity builder and trainer. I hold a Masters of Public Administration and a Bachelor of Arts in Sociology with a minor in Chicano/a Studies from California State University, Northridge. In my free time, I support a youth scholarship program, I indulge in LA’s eclectic food scene, and l love to explore California’s scenic and historic sites with my husband and daughter.
