Terri Linder

Terri Linder

Guidance Counselor, St. Helena High School

Terri was the first high school counselor Eric told about Campus Ready Foundation. She was immediately supportive, and her feedback helped shape the application process before there was anything to show. She brings the counselor's view of what families actually need.

Xochilt Polanco

Assistant Winemaker, Frog's Leap Winery

Xochilt is a first-generation college graduate who grew up in Napa Valley and is now the Assistant Winemaker at Frog's Leap Winery. She works with us on student-facing content and move-in readiness, and her Spanish fluency opens the door for families who'd otherwise be left out of the conversation.
