About

I am a part of PAC because immigration is personal to me, it's my story. I grew up in Balcarce, Argentina, and at thirteen I decided to leave home and pursue a new life in the United States. After years of challenges and persistence, I earned a scholarship to Principia, and that experience taught me that we are not just citizens of one country but of a larger, connected world. I care about this conference because immigration is not just policy, it's indeed people, sacrifice, and hope. Through my journey and what I've learned at Principia, I've seen how diverse stories create understanding and community.This conference will show that empathy and connection can be strengthened with a new approach, one that listens to and values immigrant voices. That's why I'm part of PAC.
