My legal journey continues to evolve through meaningful professional experiences that have strengthened my knowledge, skills, and purpose.
Law Graduate Fellow – Americans for Immigrant Justice
Since August, I have been part of this fellowship program, gaining invaluable experience while contributing to impactful legal work. Every week has deepened my understanding of complex immigration issues and the importance of legal representation. The program concludes in December, but its impact on my professional development and future goals will remain permanent.
Judicial Clerk – Michigan Court of Appeals
Worked directly with Judge Christopher Yates during the second half of Summer 2025 — an extraordinary opportunity to learn from the bench, sharpen legal writing, and experience the U.S. judicial process from the inside.
Law Clerk – NERO Immigration Law
During the first half of Summer 2025, I joined NERO Law Firm, a business immigration practice with a culture grounded in respect, kindness, and teamwork. The managing attorney and the entire office felt like family. I learned how business immigration complements other areas of the field, and discovered how rewarding it can be to help companies and skilled professionals build a future in the U.S. This experience confirmed that I would be honored to return as an attorney once I receive my license.
Additional Experience

Supported outreach, research, and strategic communications to promote legislative solutions strengthening immigrant communities across the U.S.
Legal Intern – Human Rights Clinic, University of Miami (Right to Food Team)
Conducted international legal research and advocacy supporting rural women’s rights and food sovereignty initiatives.
Graduate – Miami-Dade Police Citizens’ Academy
Completed advanced community-policing training to help strengthen relationships between law enforcement and local communities.
Artist • Mom of Two • Booking Agent
If resilience, discipline, creativity, and love had a job description—this would be it. Alongside my legal work, I manage and promote my two musician children’s careers, supporting their artistic journey while continuing my own.
Past Work
Judicial Secretary – Family Court
Spent nearly 15 years working in complex family law matters and supporting judicial decision-making in cases involving children and vulnerable populations in one of Latin America’s most challenging legal systems.
