Bryan Arce

I am a first-generation law student at St. Thomas University Benjamin L. Crump College of Law, and I earned my bachelor’s degree in Business Administration from Florida International University. From a young age, I dreamed of becoming a lawyer and had a passion for debate. My parents, both from Cali, Colombia, raised my two younger siblings and me to embrace and celebrate our Colombian heritage, and I continue to maintain a strong connection to my roots. Beyond the law, I have diverse passions including history, mock trial, music, basketball, and spending time in the great outdoors.
