Hi Aliyah:
It's great that you know what you want to be at the age of 14. I agree with Attorney Phillips to start your research by finding an immigration attorney near you to volunteer with. I provided a few links below to help you get off the ground with your research. I hope this was helpful. Best of luck to you!

Best thing to do is find an immigration attorney near you, ask to work in their office, helping out. Maybe volunteer a bit. Immigration work is very government form focused work. Also involves understanding your clients “story” and being able to convey it accurately. Good luck.
thank you so much:)
