Dina Martinez (She/Her/Ella) grew up in an inner city neighborhood in Los Angeles, where her parents emigrated from El Salvador. This has given her both resiliency and resourcefulness. She is a cultural guide, having grown up in the intersectionality of Los Angeles, crossing cultures, ethnicities, socioeconomic conditions, genders, and generations. Prior to working with Study Smart Tutors, she served as a National Director at a nonprofit providing leadership development and empowering college students in their leadership skills for the past 13 years. Dina joins Study Smart Tutors as an Academic Service Manager. Dina enjoys running, hiking, yoga and spending time with her family.
