About

Hi! I am an incoming 1L student at Drexel's Kline School of Law's 2-Year program, currently set to graduate from IU Indianapolis with numerous academic achievements. As someone with a strong interest in providing quality legal representation to underserved communities and groups, I hope to practice immigration, civil rights, and/or public interest law. I'm excited to begin my journey towards my career and to contribute positively to society through my career!
