Agnieszka (Aga) Haupt is a 2005 graduate of the University of Mississippi School of Law. She is a naturalized citizen, and her interests in immigration law stem from living in three different countries before turning ten. She is a native of Krakow, Poland, and has lived in Nijmegen, the Netherlands, and Strasbourg, France. She is fluent in Polish and French.
Ms. Haupt graduated magna cum laude from Syracuse University where she majored in international relations (with honors), French language and literature as well as newspaper journalism at the Newhouse School of Public Communications. She minored in anthropology. She wrote an undergraduate Honors Thesis on American immigration policy vis-a-vis Eastern/Central Europe, focusing on Polish emigres during the 1980s.
While in law school, Ms. Haupt was very active with the University of Mississippi School of Law's consumer, domestic violence and child advocacy civil legal clinics.
Ms. Haupt lives with her husband and German Shepherd Dog in Nashville, Tennessee. She is an avid globetrotter whose travels have taken her from Bedouin camps in the Negev Desert to running with the bulls in Pamplona, Spain.
