Brenda JoaquinMy name is Brenda Joaquin. I am a junior majoring in Law and Society and minoring in Latinx studies with a certificate in Spanish Legal Translation and Interpretation. As a first-generation student, I strive to become an immigration attorney in order to continue empowering my immigrant community. "By becoming a U-LAMPer I will be able to serve the immigrant community at a much larger scale by giving them a voice through their legal proceedings."

Jennifer PeredaMy name is Jennifer Pereda and I am a junior at John Jay College of Criminal Justice. I am double majoring in Latin American & Latinx Studies and Gender Studies. As an undocumented immigrant, I am interested in the betterment of my undocumented community as a whole. I consider myself an activist who seeks to improve and dismantle, little by little, social injustices in an intersectional manner. Both of my majors and life experiences push me to become a fierce advocate for justice, I want to dismantle the systemic barriers that people of color face. As a first generation college student, I am using my education as a tool to be able to not only improve myself, but also give back to my community in any way I can. Becoming a U-Lamper allows me to empower and assist undocumented youth through resources and provide them with hope and assistance.
