Genesis is a graduate from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, where the love of Jesus transformed her life through her Cru movement on campus. During her senior year of college in 2024 (after launching Destino, Cru’s Latino ministry, with her friends), she felt called back to the city that raised her: Chicago! After finishing the CCI fellowship in 2026, Genesis realized there is nothing else she’d rather do than point lost college students to El Roi, the God who saw her in her need, and sees them too. In her free time, Genesis loves to make oat milk lattes, thrift, and give every movie she’s ever watched 5/5 stars on Letterboxd.
