Accomplishments

During my senior year of college, I conducted a comprehensive research study examining gender bias, gender pay gaps, and sexual harassment experienced by women attorneys. This project involved meticulous analysis of literature, as well as in-depth interviews with legal professionals, which honed my skills in communication and critical thinking.

Through this research, I developed a keen understanding of the complexities within the legal field, enhancing my attention to detail and ability to synthesize information. I also improved my organizational skills by managing multiple aspects of the study simultaneously, ensuring timely completion of deliverables. These experiences have equipped me with a strong foundation in legal issues, as well as the resilience and multitasking abilities necessary for a dynamic role in a law firm, making me well-suited for the Receptionist/Legal Assistant position at Van Valer Law Firm.
