About Valerie
Hello everyone! My name is Valerie and I am a second year Political Science major.
In the midst of deciding to commit to law school, my current career goals are set for becoming a paralegal after acquiring my undergraduate degree. In addition to my post-graduate years, I would like to spend my time traveling, hosting my own art shows, and volunteering for communities in need. My campus involvements and future commitments involve Gateway Initiatives, American Red Cross, and Phi Alpha Delta. In my spare time, I love to paint and draw, read books, drink coffee, go on drives and hang out with my friends! As a first generation, low-income, student of color, navigating resources on campus was a difficult transition. From SSI resources, to books, to your Starbucks order, (as an ex-barista, my go-to will always be a good Brown Oatmilk Shaken Espresso) I am excited to support students at UCI!
