Siena Baracsi, B.A.

Siena Baracsi earned her B.A. in Sociology from Loyola University in 2025.  She is currently working for A Way Home America doing research and policy for North Carolina, Texas, and California. 

Siena conducts research on policies affecting homeless youth across the country and drafts policy recommendations to change how these populations are represented and supported. Siena plans to begin a PhD in Education next year, where she hopes to pursue a unique line of inquiry exploring racial/ethnic diversity on college campuses by investigating how systems of higher education shape individual student experiences. Siena reflected that "As a sociology major, I gained irreplaceable knowledge on conducting research that operationalizes complex data into synthesized conclusions. I'm certain that this background will serve me for the rest of my academic and professional life."

Siena recently participated in an Alumni Panel on the Lake Shore Campus.
