today I rise to honor Diana Barrios, a homegrown, passionate leader. Diana graduated from Oxford Academy at the young age of 16 after finishing her sophomore year. She then earned a bachelor's degree in political science and sociology from UCLA with high honors and completed a master's degree from Johns Hopkins University. Diana's commitment to public service continues to be unwavering, and I was honored to name her as one of my 2025 Women of the Year.
