Goals and interests

Career goal

I want to attend law school after I graduate, and perhaps choose be a part of entertainment law or corporate law. After taking many philosophy courses I realized no matter what I do I want to have an impact on the things I am passionate about in this world, I want to be able to find a platform that broadcasts those thoughts the most successfully.

Graduate school interests

I would love to attend law school, and maybe where I grew up, in California

Outside the classroom

I have always loved photography, and been amazed at how much emotion a lens can capture, horseback riding has been something I've been doing for the past 13 years, I enjoy mentoring and working with young kids (specifically in underprivileged communities), and geocaching (a world-wide scavenger hunt essentially)
