I am currently a fourth year senior studying Political Science with a minor in Criminology, Law and Society at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. I hope to continue my education as a J.D Candidate this coming Fall 2025. After excelling academically while working diligently on applications, internships, and work experience, I feel well prepared to bring my intellectual, professional and real-world skills to the next level as I graduate this May.I'm from the south-side of Chicago, IL and feel blessed to have grown up in a place with such a strong emphasis on community. Because of this, alongside being an eldest daughter in a large family, I thrive working in leadership roles as well as a member of a team. Having numerous different educational experiences has given me skills in adaptation and flexibility as well as a diverse mindset across all aspects.
