Beyond the Classroom: Who I Am
Outside of my academic work, I’m someone who recharges by staying active and creating. I’ve always loved writing, whether it’s reflecting on the world around me or shaping a new idea on the page. I also spend a lot of time outdoors hiking local trails and getting lost in new routes. Running has been another steady part of my life—one of my favorite memories is finishing 3rd in a 5K back in high school. These hobbies keep me grounded, curious, and ready for the next challenge. I also have bred and cultivated my own koi fish in the past breeding them for several generations outdoors.
Turning experience into advocacy
Looking Ahead: Law School & Making an Impact
My long-term goal is to attend law school and build a career that helps people navigate some of the toughest moments in their lives. I see the law as a tool for making the world fairer, more compassionate, and more accountable -- and I'm driven by the idea that careful research and strong advocacy can change outcomes for real people. Before coming to Stonehill, I worked as a legal intern with Bogan Law Group. That experience gave me a firsthand look at how attorneys support clients, manage complex cases, and think through difficult decisions. It was there that I first saw how my strengths in writing, analysis, and communication could fit into a legal career. Ever since, I've been committed to developing the skills and perspective I'll need to succeed in law school and serve others with integrity.
