Bio
I am a conscientious, animal-loving, third-year law student - I am an aspiring environmental lawyer. I am highly family-oriented; I love reading, travelling and learning - no education is ever wasted.
My empathy extends widely - children and environmental justice, as well as learning & educational growth. My desire to help others, stems from my personal struggle through school - battling to reach my own expectations, those of my parents, as well as my teachers. Academic success, like most, is rooted in courage in ones abilities, and I’d love to untap the potential of other students.
