Campoverdi worked as a part-time actress and model during her time at USC to pay for her education.[8] She later received her Master of Public Policy from the Kennedy School of Government at Harvard University.[7] Growing up in L.A. during the 1990s, Campoverdi points to the vote for Proposition 187 and the Rodney King Riots as events that shaped her worldview and served as a political awakening.[8] CareerAfter working for the Agricultural Worker Health Initiative at The California Endowment, a health-focused foundation that expands access to quality and affordable healthcare to underserved communities in California,[6] and following her master's degree, Campoverdi was hired by then-Senator Barack Obama's 2008 presidential campaign, to work in the Chicago headquarters.[6] She lived off her credit cards, had no health insurance and stayed in supporter housing.[9] Campoverdi's focus during the campaign was outreach to various constituent groups, including the Latino community.[10] Following Obama's victory, Campoverdi was appointed to work in the West Wing of the White House as Special Assistant to the White House Deputy Chief of Staff for Policy, Mona Sutphen.[11] She later became the first ever White House Deputy Director of Hispanic Media.[12] In the latter role, Campoverdi developed and implemented the White House’s communications strategy directed towards the Hispanic community and briefed President Obama in preparation for interviews with Hispanic media. Campoverdi also worked on White House communications around a broad range of issues, including the Affordable Care Act and its effects on the Latino community.[13] In 2012, Campoverdi left the White House and joined Univision as Senior Advisor for Innovation and Communications Strategy, where she also worked with the team that launched Fusion.[14][4] Campoverdi subsequently served as Managing Editor of #EmergingUS at the Los Angeles Times, a multimedia venture founded by Jose Antonio Vargas that explores race, immigration and the emerging American identity.[15] In December 2016, Campoverdi announced that she would seek the nomination of the Democratic Party in the special election for the U.S. House of Representatives in California's 34th congressional district,[12] replacing Rep. Xavier Becerra, who has been appointed to succeed Kamala Harris as Attorney General of California.[7] The catalyst for Campoverdi’s congressional run was the election of President Donald Trump and the potential repeal of the Affordable Care Act.[16] In the April 4, 2017 primary election, Campoverdi did not make the run-off.[17] BoardsCampoverdi serves on the Boards of Harvard’s Shorenstein Center on Media, Politics and Public Policy, the California Community Foundation,[18] the Harvard Journal of Hispanic Policy,[19] UCLA's Center for Diverse Leadership in Science,[20] and is a member of the Pacific Council on International Policy.[21] In 2017, Campoverdi was appointed to serve as a Commissioner for the California Children and Families Commission, also known as First 5 California. The Commission is a statewide body that is dedicated to improving the lives of California’s youngest citizens and their families through a multi-faceted approach that includes education, health services, childcare, and other vital programs.[1] She is a volunteer teacher for InsideOUT Writers, through which she teaches a weekly creative writing class to incarcerated youth in Los Angeles’ Central Juvenile Hall. Women's health advocacyIn March 2017, Campoverdi revealed in a Washington Post profile that she has inherited the BRCA2 gene mutation, giving her an 85% risk of developing breast cancer, and that she plans to have a preventive double mastectomy. Campoverdi lost both her great-grandmother and grandmother to breast cancer, and her mother and aunt have also battled the disease.[4] Campoverdi made the protection of access to affordable healthcare and the Affordable Care Act a focus of her congressional campaign. Two days after she went public with her diagnosis, she released a television ad in which she stated “If Donald Trump wants to have a conversation about women’s bodies, let’s start with mine.” Campoverdi chose to speak publicly about her personal health in an effort to bring attention to the stakes of limited access to healthcare.[22] In 2017, Campoverdi was awarded Penn Medicine's Basser Center for BRCA's inaugural YLC Distinguished Advocacy Award for her advocacy around BRCA-related cancers.[23] In a viral op-ed for Cosmopolitan,[24] Campoverdi wrote, "Now more than ever, we must recognize and accept the complexity of real women, and celebrate them in their quest for leadership roles. Whole, multidimensional women. Please throw your name in the arena, whichever one you’re in — because it only gets better every time one of us tries."[25] References1. ^1 {{Cite news|url=https://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20170711006660/en/5-California-Welcomes-Alejandra-Campoverdi|title=First 5 California Welcomes Alejandra Campoverdi|access-date=2018-08-14|language=en}} 2. ^{{Cite news|url=https://www.theguardian.com/world/2017/apr/02/barack-obama-staff-run-office-ronnie-cho-trump|title=Former Obama staffers run for office to protect the progressive policies they built|last=Jamieson|first=Amber|date=2017-04-02|work=The Guardian|access-date=2017-04-26|language=en-GB|issn=0261-3077}} 3. ^{{cite news|last1=Marniquez|first1=Pablo|title=Latinas for Change: Alejandra Campoverdi's roots have helped her reinvent the media landscape|url=http://www.foxnews.com/lifestyle/2015/03/24/alejandra-campoverdi-roots-have-helped-her-change-media-game.html|accessdate=27 April 2017|work=Fox News|date=March 24, 2015}} 4. ^1 2 {{cite news| url=https://www.washingtonpost.com/lifestyle/style/alejandra-campoverdi-is-running-for-congress-and-facing-down-the-threat-of-cancer/2017/03/07/87cd791c-fdd9-11e6-99b4-9e613afeb09f_story.html | title=Alejandra Campoverdi is running for Congress.
