Accomplishments
I have a strong love for the law and the country in which we live. In High school I was Vice President then President of the Law Club.
I enjoy critical thinking and debating issues. Currently I'm seeking a double major degree in Classics and Philosophy. I chose these subjects because I'm thinking of going to law school after graduation and believe both degrees would be very helpful due to their influence on the development of our own laws.
I enjoy the thinking and reasoning of different schools of thought.
I appreciate how Philosophy often tackles the subjects of law, ethics and morality to build a strong foundation on the nature of logic and reason.
I believe Classics teaches you to take the long view and see the big picture. It also allows one to properly understand where many of our governmental regulations derive from.
