What was your most memorable law school moment?
Celebrating the completion of first-semester exams with my new law school friends.


Finish this sentence: I could not have gotten through law school without…
All of the support from my family, friends, and co-workers.

Who are your mentors? How have they impacted your journey?
My lawyers and professors, all of whom have helped shape my understanding of law, policy, and strategy.

What did you learn about yourself in law school?
Law school taught me that no matter how busy I am, I always seem to have time for one more task or one more project, but I should never forget to enjoy laying in a grassy field on a warm summer day, watching the clouds pass above.

Write a message.
Law school does not happen as a solo journey. I would have never survived without my wife, who kept me clothed and fed, always with a loving smile, as I sprinted between school, work, and a myriad of other responsibilities. I would not have made it were it not for the support and patience of my family, friends, and co-workers who stood by me despite the long absences required of a law student with a full-time job. I also owe so much of my success to my law school friends: the evening-section class of 2020 and all of the other students I met, worked and studied alongside for four, grueling and wonderful years. Finally, I would like to thank my professors, for their help and guidance, plus their special understanding of the demands of my regular job as I navigated my way through law school.
