My name is Argelia I usually go by Naomi which is my middle name. I use she/her pronouns. I was born in Brooklyn NY which is where I spent most of my life. I currently live in staten island because rent is cheaper. My major is Law and paralegal studies, the reason I chose this major is my passion for law. One of the area of law I would like to specialize in is immigration. I have immigrate parents and I know how hard it was for them to come to this country. I want to have the ability to help people in need asking for asylum or just petitioning for a relative. Some of my hobbies consist of baking, traveling, photography, shopping “ my kids and I are always in target” , random little getaways, dancing, singing “although I’m off key”, love going to the movies, reading etc. 

Below is a picture of the two most important people in my life which are my kids. They are part of the reason I decided to come back to school. They are what keeps me motivated to continue although sometimes it not easy. I know it will be all worth it at the end. Although my life didn’t take the course I imagined for it to take I am grateful to have them both. 

 

 

I look forward to getting to know everyone and I hope everyone has a great semester!

All the best, 

Argelia
