Summary
As a rising junior at George Washington University majoring in Political Science with a minor in Law and Society, I am driven by a deep passion for the legal system and a long-term goal of attending law school. Living and learning in the heart of Washington, D.C. has fueled my interest in law, public policy, and the pursuit of justice. Through my coursework, leadership roles, and hands-on experiences, I’ve developed strong skills in critical thinking, legal research, and persuasive communication.
