Her advocacy at public hearings and behind the scenes has shaped policy decisions around the licensing process. Gonzalez and her family emigrated from the highlands of Ecuador to Jersey City when she was 3. By the time she graduated high school, she had moved eight times in lower-income neighborhoods, which allowed gang-related crime to flourish. Gonzalez said she pursued a career as a lawyer for the knowledge and financial security she craved as a child.

Gonzalez was the first in her family to graduate from a four-year college, Boston University, and the first to complete graduate school, Suffolk University Law School in Boston.She was just recognized as a Cannabis Law Trailblazer by the National Law Journal.
