Salinas Underground


We tell the story of the city we grew up with by interviewing the people that make it what it is: the business people, the musicians, the scholars, anyone that adds to the culture of Salinas.

There are not very many Mexican-American bioengineering post-graduates that attend Stanford and even rarer is one born and raised in Salinas. Rolando Cruz checks all those boxes and he sat down with Oz during a talk about the Bracero program held at the Steinbeck Center. He has an amazing story that goes from a small trailer in Baronda to the halls of Stanford and now he is ready to come back and help inspire others with his love of science. If you need some life inspiration this is your episode.
