What's next?

As of March 17th, I will officially be done with undergrad! Even now as I type those words, they don't feel real. I don't think I have fully comprehended yet that my time at UW is almost through. I have experienced so much change, so much hardship, and yet so much joy. I am coming out of undergrad knowing that I worked hard, made friendships I will have forever, and ultimately that I pushed myself FAR out of my comfort zone. When COVID hit my sophomore year of high school, I promised myself that I would make the most out of my college experience. And looking back, I feel as though I did exactly that.

​

Upon graduation, I will continue working as a Paralegal. I will also begin studying for the LSAT... As of right now I plan to take a gap year to study and take the LSAT, and devote time to law school applications. I have a couple of conference presentations coming up in the Spring. In April I will be presenting at Scripps College at the European Union Undergraduate Research Conference. In May I will be presenting in San Francisco at the Law & Society Association Conference. In June I will be in Seattle officially celebrating graduation with friends and family!

​

On that note, it's only right to conclude with a shoutout to everyone that kept me sane during my time at UW. A huge thank you to my parents and sister, residents of 5611, and my lovely girlfriend. And to everyone who helped foster my academic growth and career development, THANK YOU Honors staff, Dr. Sabine Lang, Dr. Megan McCloskey, Dr. Stephen Meyers, JSIS and LSJ advising staff, my friends at UAA and the (former) LSJ/POL S/JSIS/GWSS Writing Center. I would not be here without the support of those around me.
