I feel incredibly lucky to have had the opportunity to work with such amazing clients and families alongside the team at RILF. This experience has given me a better understanding of the needs within my community, so I hope to continue learning and growing through public service. Learning about the legal processes in the evolving field of immigration law through hands on research, communication with clients, and drafting of legal documents has helped me prepare for a career in law.

My internship experience with RILF was invaluable to my personal, academic, and professional development. I had the opportunity to use the reading, writing, and critical thinking skills cultivated through my undergraduate courses to do meaningful legal work that directly contributed to the success of clients’ cases. I appreciated the way each task informed me on various aspects of the immigration legal field, challenged me with unique assignments that pushed me out of my comfort zone, and inspired me to pursue legal work that enables passionate and resilient clients to create brighter futures in the United States. My time at RILF helped affirm my present academic and career aspirations and provided me with the knowledge, experience, and skills necessary to succeed on this path.
