ABOUT ME
Hello, my name is SeeVoun Mullings. I was born and raised in Richmond, VA. I’m a political science and philosophy major with a passion for public policy, social justice, and creating a better, more inclusive future through informed advocacy and community-driven change. My journey began with a curiosity for the politics surrounding immigration and the prevalent issue of systemic racism, and over the years, I’ve turned that curiosity into a craft. With a focus on public policy and grassroots advocacy, I enjoy working on projects that challenge me to think creatively and push boundaries. Whether I’m collaborating with a team or leading a project from concept to completion, I bring dedication, adaptability, and a thoughtful approach to everything I do. Outside of work, I’m usually travelling to different cities, visiting museums, and rereading The Hunger Games book series, always looking for inspiration in everyday life. Upon graduation, I plan to take a gap year before heading to law school in the Fall of 2026. During this gap year, I plan on working in the public or nonprofit sector, gaining hands-on experience in policy research, legal advocacy, or community organizing to deepen my understanding of the real-world impact of legislation and reform efforts. This time will allow me to build practical skills, broaden my perspective, and prepare myself to enter law school with clarity, purpose, and a strong foundation in service-driven work."

MY STORY
Since I was a student in high school, I knew I wanted to be involved in advocacy and civil rights work. Previous to 2017, I hadn’t been fully aware of the depth and urgency of immigration issues in the U.S. Children were separated from their parents, families were detained in inhumane conditions, and the fear among immigrant communities intensified. Witnessing these events sparked a deep sense of outrage and responsibility in me, pushing me to learn more about immigration policy and the systems of inequality that uphold such practices.
​
I was sixteen when George Floyd was murdered by a police officer. That moment, and the global movement it ignited, forced me to confront the realities of systemic racism in a way I never had before. It was a turning point that not only deepened my awareness but also solidified my commitment to civil rights work. I began to educate myself more intentionally, engage in conversations about racial justice, and explore how public policy can either reinforce or dismantle oppressive systems. It’s a moment that continues to fuel my passion for equity and meaningful reform.
​
Both experiences continue to motivate me to pursue a career grounded in justice, equity, and advocacy. They’ve shaped my academic path, informed my values, and inspired me to be a thoughtful, action-oriented voice in spaces where change is both necessary and demanded. As I move forward in my studies and future career, I carry with me the lessons of those moments, committed to using policy, education, and community engagement as tools to challenge injustice and uplift marginalized voices.
