Description: My name is Kristen Gonzalez, I'm a proud daughter of an immigrant family, a Queens native, community organizer, and tech worker. I'm running for State Senate because no one should struggle to live with dignity.

I was raised in a one-bedroom apartment in Elmhurst, Queens by a single mom from Puerto Rico. At 12, I won a scholarship to a wealthy prep school on the Upper East Side.
For years, I commuted between two New Yorks: one for the rich and wealthy few, and one for working-class and immigrant families like mine.
