==Early years==
Sidney Abel Espinosa was born at Kaiser Hospital in Santa Clara, CA and raised in the agricultural town of Gilroy, CA (“The Garlic Capital of the World”). His father, Abel Espinosa, who is an immigrant from Mexico, arrived in the United States “penniless and speaking only Spanish,”〔"(bizjournals.com )"〕 and became a successful engineer. His mother, Janet Espinosa, is a retired teacher, professor and executive director of an educational non-profit organization. 〔"(smartvoter.org )"〕
Espinosa grew up “surrounded by orchards, animals, and rolling hills,” giving him a love of nature and the environment and leading to his “passionate work with numerous environmental organizations.”〔"(smartvoter.org )"〕 He was an active Gilroy High School graduate where he served as senior class president, an editor of the Yearbook, the president of the California Scholarship Federation, and the French Club. During his teens, Espinosa won several regional art competitions for his paintings and drawings, and was very active in the First Presbyterian Church, track and field team and the community theatre. He later graduated from Wesleyan University in Middletown, CT where he majored in government. At Wesleyan, Espinosa wrote for the student newspaper (the Argus), sang in the Ebony Singers gospel choir, and served as the president of MEChA, an advocacy organization for Hispanic students. Espinosa later earned a master's degree from the Kennedy School of Government at Harvard University, where he developed a passion for philanthropy and “its power to transform communities and individuals.”
