About
I am a Paralegal Studies student with a strong foundation in civil litigation, personal injury, tenant-landlord matters, and government contracts. My personality and natural way of working draw me to organization and bringing clarity to complexity. My strengths include drafting pleadings, discovery documents, and demand letters, as well as organizing cases in ways that support effective advocacy. I take pride in contributing work that attorneys can rely on, and I remain open to learning new practice areas and expanding my skill set in settings that encourage growth, accountability, and meaningful collaboration.

Goals and interests
- Career goal
My goal is to grow into a Lead Paralegal role within a firm focused on civil litigation, where my strengths in drafting complaints, answers, discovery documents, and demand letters can be used at a high level. I enjoy the structure and strategy of litigation work and take pride in producing clear, well-organized documents that move a case forward. While my experience with business organization is currently academic, it’s an area I’m genuinely interested in developing through hands-on practice and mentorship. Long term, I want to build depth in both litigation and business-focused work, with a clear understanding of the solutions I bring to the table and an openness to what’s on the table to help me continue evolving with the firm.
- Graduate school interests
I plan to pursue graduate study in law, with the goal of continuing my academic and professional development in legal advocacy. Law school represents a natural next step for me.
