Rachel Uranga left the Daily News last year and now, in her 30s, has left Echo Park to move back in with her father. She writes about it in a guest gig for CurbedLA, including the pitfalls and tips for others who may have to consider going back in with the parents.
THERE IS AN UPSIDE: My ever so gracious father encourages me to invite friends over and relax in my home. Somehow it just never happens. I shut down the idea as soon as I imagine my guests laughing, eating, toasting the weekend and yes, keeping my father from sleeping. So, I relax: In the meantime, I get to chill in Dad’s outdoor jacuzzi, save boatloads of money and get to know him a little better.
Uranga had gone to work for the ACLU; it's not listed in her credit at Curbed so I don't know where that stands. She had to give up the presidency of the California Chicano News Media Association chapter here when she left journalism.
