Gabriela Perez

Gabriela is a person who stutters and currently works for the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) in their State Supreme Court Initiative. Gabriela graduated from the University of Chicago with a degree in Global Studies and Latin American and Iberian Languages and recently completed a Fulbright teaching fellowship. Growing up with a stutter, Gabriela is passionate about disability rights and is proud of her involvement in the National Stuttering Association. She enjoys spending time with her family (two sets of twins!) and pets.

Gabriela strongly believes in making the National Stuttering Association a more diverse, inclusive, equitable, and safe environment for all. She is excited to lead the DEI committee and work to increase access for marginalized people who stutter.
