Diana Tapia is a staff writer for The Express. This is her last year at City College and first semester on the Express. 

Diana was born and raised in what once was a small town called Sacramento. Along with her five siblings and parents, she is the first in her family to attend college and expects to graduate in summer of 2023. Diana not only wants the American Dream but is determined to establish her career as a journalist. Diana will continue her educational goals in Southern California where she will obtain a master’s degree in Communications. Meanwhile, she is also working towards becoming a sports analyst for the NFL. 

While on the Express, Diana hopes to write about community concerns, upcoming resolutions and the rising of the Sacramento region. 

Diana was raised by her parents who immigrated into the United States. She conducted herself in an honest, hard-working, manner, and with such light of energy she humbled herself to learn and grow as a writer.
