<br>Prior to my PhD, I worked on drug policy at the White House Office of National Drug Control Policy, with refugees and immigrants at U.S. Committee on Refugees and Immigrants, and with unaccompanied immigrant minors in detention centers at the Young Center for Immigrant Children's Rights.<br>
<br>I am a proud first-generation Mexican immigrant who moved to the US at the age of ten. I love playing and watching fútbol, listening to (and singing) corridos, traveling and eating street food in Mexico, and am passionate about helping the communities that I am a part of.<br>
