Hilda was born in El Salvador and moved to Richmond, CA at a young age. She received a B.A. in Sociology and Legal Studies from UC Berkeley in 2021. While she was an undergraduate at UC Berkeley, Hilda had the opportunity to intern with us for some time. She assisted the immigration team with client outreach, intake and other tasks that helped her gain valuable experience for her current role. Right before joining the CLSEPA team in late 2021, she interned with a small immigration firm and gained experience working on multiple family based petitions. She is passionate about the legal field and helping her immigrant community and is excited to have the opportunity to work closely with our clients. Hilda habla español.
