He graduated law school in 2023 from Antonin Scalia Law School’s part-time evening program, where he was a Notes Editor of the National Security Law Journal.
Mr. Ortega’s first experience in the legal field was as a Legal Assistant with Hogar Immigrant Services, a Virginia non-profit that offers ESOL classes, citizenship assistance, and immigration legal assistance to the local community. Providing paralegal services at Hogar’s monthly citizenship workshops put Mr. Ortega in touch with the aspirations and struggles of the local Hispanic community and motivated him to further involve himself in the study of law.
