I am a dedicated professional with a Bachelor's degree in Political Science from the University of Washington, where I specialized in international humanitarian law. My rigorous academic research resulted in several unpublished papers, enhancing my analytical and critical thinking abilities for tackling complex legal issues.
Currently, I am a Law Student at American University, building on my foundational knowledge and preparing for a career in law. My legal education is further refining my skills and broadening my understanding of various legal domains.
Previously, I contributed my expertise as a Legal Assistant at Suttell & Hammer, where I supported the legal team with precision and efficiency. My role demanded strong organizational skills, meticulous attention to detail, and the ability to manage multiple tasks, all of which I excel at.
In addition to my academic and professional pursuits, I am passionate about community service. As a National Key Volunteer for the Boy Scouts of America’s Technology Subcommittee, I help foster leadership and character development in young individuals, while leveraging technology to improve organizational efficiency.
With a solid academic background, practical experience, and a commitment to community service, I am equipped to contribute meaningfully to the legal field and the broader realm of humanitarian affairs.
