Ruby holds a bachelor's degree in communications from the University of California, Davis , and earned her Juris Doctor from Santa Clara University School of Law in 2020 , along with a certificate in Public Interest and Social Justice Law.

"Do the best you can until you know better. Then when you know better, do better."
