Summary

I am currently a law student with a strong foundation in legal research, analysis, and writing. I’m particularly drawn to the power of well-crafted arguments—how law is not only interpreted but shaped through language, advocacy, and precision. I bring a clear, reflective approach to complex legal questions, and I enjoy distilling dense material into compelling, structured work. With experience managing academic deadlines and high-level legal content, I’m confident in my ability to contribute meaningfully in fast-paced, detail-oriented environments. I’m especially motivated by roles that value critical thinking, strong writing, and a genuine curiosity about how law interacts with broader social and global issues.
