Research Fellow
While attending Northern Arizona University, Eileen held the position of a research assistant where she focused her research on abuse of migrants in private detention facilities and public perceptions of asylum seekers. In her research, Eileen employed qualitative and quantitative data analysis to further our understanding of the American immigration system. Eileen speaks Spanish, French, and English, and was on the Dean’s list each semester. She graduated after just two years at NAU with a 3.96 GPA. Following her graduation, she lived in Mexico, where she participated in a criminal law clinic at the Tecnologico de Monterrey and volunteered at Casa Monarca migrant shelter. She currently leads an immigration defense team supporting asylum seekers who are in the removal process at Salazar Law in Utah.
