About Justin Donato

Justin was selected to join the first COPA cohort in Summer 2022. He is a recent BA graduate in Psychology, Spring 2021. Earlier he was at Las Positas for about 3 years before transferring to CSUEB. He had joined the Puente Project at Las Positas College, where he developed a background in mentoring and guiding first year college students. Joining Puente, he felt more engaged in College and felt like a part of the community. He felt a strong interest in Psychology and from what he was learning in the classroom, he was able to share and pass the knowledge to his students who were part of Puente. Without the support from Puente and his advisor, he wouldn’t have considered a career in higher education.
