What I'm looking for

I seek roles that leverage my human rights and legal research expertise, offer meaningful advocacy work, opportunities for remote or hybrid work, and a collaborative culture focused on impact and professional growth.

I am a dedicated human rights lawyer with experience in legal research, drafting, and client engagement across government, NGOs, and remote legal support roles. I have supported case preparation, advocacy campaigns on climate and gender justice, and provided high-volume customer support and accurate data entry.

I combine strong communication and organizational skills with hands-on experience in remote freelancing, call center operations, and advocacy work. I am results-driven, detail-oriented, and passionate about using legal expertise to advance women’s and children’s rights and climate justice.
