About
Why did you choose this law school?
I chose Drexel Law because they offered a 2 year JD program. They also continue to grow year after year and rise in rankings which makes me excited about how much more success the law school is capable of. In addition, I wanted to challenge myself to live in a city since it is something I had never done before.
Where else were you accepted?
Delaware Law School
What are your future plans (in law school and beyond)?
I am looking forward to continuing my education and learning more about the law. I currently am looking to specialize in Business Law. Most likely starting with large businesses and then move to work with smaller businesses.
What other interesting thing can you tell us about yourself?
I will graduate from Drexel Law at age 23!
Impact of Ursinus
What was your most memorable moment in class (or otherwise)?
The most memorable moment in class was advancing to the finals for the Trial Advocacy class. Previously I did not have a lot of confidence in the class because we were dealing with difficult material. But, my partner and I were able to master the material and present convincing oral arguments. I also loved the professors for this course.
How did you stay involved on campus?
Freshman year I signed up for everything that seemed interesting to me. Throughout my time at Ursinus, I was a Resident Advisor, Leadership Consultant, Game Day worker, Student Proctor, Abele Scholar, Alumni Relations for Tau Sigma Gamma, Vice President of Students Today Alumni Tomorrow, and President of the Pre-Law Society. I like to look back at my Ursinus experience and know that I did everything I could have wanted to on campus while also maintaining Dean’s List every semester.
