With my degree from Duke, I plan to pursue a career in law school and have just completed the LSAT. I’m currently a part of the Duke Chorale and take a very active leadership role with various responsibilities, such as organizing the alumni reunion and fundraising events. Some of my non-academic passions are the outdoors and traveling. I love to guide backpacking trips all over the country. And I recently spent the year abroad in various European countries, such as Bologna, Italy and Glasgow, Scotland.

Favorite Class: My favorite class has been my senior capstone for Political Science: The Origins of WWI & WWII.
