About

I am a first generation non-traditional college student majoring in Philosophy. I have maintained my gpa, achieving Honor Roll status each semester, while raising a family. I am the past-President, First Vice-President, Treasurer, and Historian of a non-profit organization with over 100 members. My love of people is a reason I feel comfortable in leadership positions. I welcome challenges and conflicts as they present an opportunity to implement strategies which lead to resolutions. I have over 20 years experience as a legal assistant. I am applying to law school this year because it gives me an opportunity to work with people and resolve conflicts. For the reasons stated above I believe I am a great fit for the Honor Society and hope you consider my application.
