Paola Ramos is a host and correspondent for VICE News, contributor to Telemundo News and MSNBC, and is a Hauser Fellow at Harvard Kennedy School. She was the deputy director of Hispanic media for Hillary Clinton’s 2016 presidential campaign and a political appointee during the Barack Obama administration, and she also served in President Obama’s 2012 reelection campaign.

Ramos is the author of "Finding Latinx: In Search of the Voices Redefining Latino Identity." The book explores how young Latinos across the United States are redefining their identities, pushing boundaries, and awakening politically in powerful and surprising ways. Many of them —Afrolatino, indigenous, Muslim, queer and undocumented, living in large cities and small towns — are voices who have been chronically overlooked in how the diverse population of almost sixty million Latinos in the U.S. has been represented.

Ramos received her MA in public policy from the Harvard Kennedy School and her BA from Barnard College, Columbia University. She lives in Brooklyn. She’s Mexican, Cuban and American.
