About

I had kept my gpa at a 4.0, unfortunately, my mother had a stroke and required 2 weeks of intensive care and then unexpectedly passed away. I had 2 days to get 2 months of work done and dropped to a 3.5. My passion is helping others. I’ve helped multiple people in my area with issues with a fraudulent contractor that I went after for 3 years, uncovering every illegal thing he was involved with, even from being a salesman for lawyers to sue insurances. I’ve been able to have liens removed from homes he had done illegally and went delivered the clearance of a lien to the homeowners. I think we should all help each other.

Goals and interests

Career goal

I intend to possibly further my career, where I have the capability of helping defend people, rather than doing just the paper work. I’ve been told by multiple lawyers a legal situation that I was pursuing wouldn’t have any outcome, well the outcome was that I won, I was right.

Outside the classroom

My hobbies include spending time with my kids. My passion in life is helping others, without anything in return. It’s better to give than to receive, that brings me more joy. I love to learn. If I can’t understand something, I don’t just give up and move on, I keep trying and trying until I have a full understanding, and if I know I’m right, I won’t back down.
