🎙️ New Episode of First Gen 101: From Jalisco to Doctoral Dreams with Cesar Margarito

In this inspiring episode, host Miguel sits down with Cesar Margarito, a proud first-generation college graduate and advocate for educational equity. Cesar opens up about his journey from his roots as an immigrant from Jalisco, Mexico, to navigating the U.S. education system and launching Fly Socks—a creative venture that funds scholarships for first-generation students through the sale of stylish socks.

From working at Staples after graduation to discovering his passion for educational outreach and now pursuing a doctoral degree, Cesar’s story is a powerful reminder of resilience, purpose, and the importance of giving back.

Tune in as we explore themes of mentorship, community, and the first-gen experience—and learn how one student’s journey can spark change for many others.
