Immigration, Identity and Verification

Portsmouth, New Hampshire – Two PAE employees took a break from their job supporting immigration at the National Visa Center to take their oath of citizenship July 26.  Salina Tara Palreiro, a native of Thailand with a master’s degree in educational linguistics, and Genevieve Al Deraawi, who taught French in Beirut for 20 years, joined 26 others in a ceremony marking their naturalization at the Portsmouth, New Hampshire, facility. 

“I love my work,” said Palreiro, who first moved to the United States in 2010 and has worked for PAE since 2014. “I feel really proud.”
