Go, America!

Last week Daniele, one of our paralegals, and her husband became US citizens. To celebrate this momentous occasion, we had some good old-fashioned American cake and decorated the office with lots of US flags. Her oath ceremony in New York City was conducted by the first Filipino-American Judge, the Hon. Lorna Schofield, who during the ceremony shared her own immigration story with the 160 oath-takers from forty-seven different nations. "Although the whole procedure took about three hours, the wait was totally worth it," Daniele says. "I am so happy to finally be a US citizen." Congratulations, and enjoy that super delicious cake, because that's what America is pretty much all about!
