Andreas Munguia Rivera

Andreas was born in Sonora, Mexico and grew up in Tucson, AZ. After obtaining his associate degree from Pima Community College in Tucson, AZ, he transferred to the University of Rochester in New York, where he earned his B.A. in political science with a minor in international relations. He later earned his J.D. from Syracuse University College of Law. Andreas chose to pursue a career in law in the hopes of one day working on behalf of those who find themselves tangled up in the legal system, oftentimes through no fault of their own. During the two summers of his law school career, Andreas interned for the Florence Project. His interest in immigration law stems from his own experiences navigating the country’s immigration system. In his free time, Andreas enjoys playing and listening to music, exercising, and watching movies. Andreas joined the Florence Project as a law graduate in September 2022
