What I'm looking for

I am seeking a role that allows me to apply my legal knowledge and analytical skills in a collaborative environment, with opportunities for professional growth and meaningful contributions to legal practice.

As a candidate for Juris Doctor at Boston University School of Law, I am committed to developing my legal expertise and contributing to impactful cases. My academic journey has been marked by a strong performance in both Mathematics and Political Science, graduating Cum Laude from Muhlenberg College. I have honed my analytical skills through various roles, including my experience as a Summer Associate at Levitt LLP, where I prepared pre-trial materials for complex federal litigation and conducted in-depth legal research.

In addition to my legal experience, I have served as a Student Panelist on the Muhlenberg College Hearing Board, where I developed skills in evidentiary analysis and decision-making in a quasi-judicial setting. My role as a Research Analyst at the Muhlenberg College Institute of Public Opinion allowed me to synthesize complex data into accessible reports, further enhancing my ability to communicate effectively with diverse audiences. I am passionate about leveraging my skills to advocate for justice and contribute to meaningful legal work.
