Min
Position: Pre-Law Fund Recipient

Min (she/her) identifies herself as a 1.5-generation American with Korean heritage, having spent most of her life in Southern California. During her undergraduate years, she encountered Immigrant Rising through her school’s Undocumented Student Services, where she learned how to seek and offer help to her underrepresented community. Her passion for serving others continued as she transitioned into a role advocating for her clients at a personal injury law firm. Given her circumstances as an undocumented individual, she often questions the concept of self-worth—pondering who and what determines it. However, as she works in the best interest of her clients, Min is reminded of the words of one of the Founding Fathers: that all individuals have the unalienable right to the pursuit of happiness. This belief drives her vision of becoming someone who validates others’ worth, ensuring their voices are heard and their pursuit of happiness is defended.
