Haniel Lopez

Born in Mexico but raised in the US, Libni Haniel brings years of personal experience to Preemptive Love’s work with migrant and refugee populations. While working as a professor in several universities in Ciudad Juarez, he also frequently volunteered with migrants in the various shelters in the city, bringing them English classes and connecting them with other local resources. In early 2020, Libni Haniel found a home in Preemptive Love, and he now puts to use his passion for helping refugees as a Programs Officer on the US/Mexico border. Outside of work, Libni Haniel enjoys couch-surfing while traveling the country, playing guitar and singing in his church’s worship band, and attempting to keep his fishing hobby alive while living in the desert.
