  • "Isabella Arias was raised in Queens, New York by her single mother and grandmother. Her family immigrated from Colombia to New York in the 90s, fleeing political violence. Through them, a sense of morality and fairness was instilled in her. After learning the circumstances of the nation and world around her, Isabella saw a path for herself. By serving communities through the American legal and governmental systems, Isabella hopes to one day bring more justice into the world. This fall, Isabella will be attending Mount Holyoke College, the first of the Seven Sisters. She intends on majoring in Political Science on the Pre-Law track, and later gaining entry to a top law school. She credits support from her loving family, driven peers, and talented mentors for her achievements thus far."
