Obregon graduated high school ranking #4 of 100 seniors from her class, went on to earn her Associate’s in Paralegal Studies from LaGuardia Community College in New York, and later received the first runner up at a national pageant in Los Angeles in which she was able to represent her home of New York. All of these achievements are not only amazing milestones in Janira, but just the beginning of all of the goals she has set for her future.

Janira graduated from John Jay College of Criminal Justice; she is now planning on going into the field of Law. Before all of her powerful accomplishments, Janira was diagnosed with Cerebral Palsy and Spastic Quadriplegia soon after she was born. Cerebral Palsy is a common disability that is found in children affecting their brain and causing weakness or problems within their muscles. This normally develops before, during, or after birth. Spastic Quadriplegia or spastic tetraplegia is spastic movements that occur in three limbs, typically both of your legs and one arm. This is also a type of cerebral palsy. Despite having these disabilities, Janira continues to push boundaries and achieve her goals.
