Steven Sacco - Fremio Sepulveda

I am a 29 year old law student at Albany Law School. I am also pursuing my Masters of Social Work at the State University of New York at Albany in a dual degree JD/MSW program. I try and use my writing to advocate for the human rights of marginalized populations within our Human family. In particular, I've focused on the rights of immigrants, migrants and religious and sexual minorities locally and globally. I also have an interest in pointing out our unhealthy relationship with materalism and technology. I live in Albany, New York.
