Summary

I am a first-year student at the University of Tennessee, Knoxville, pursuing a Pre-Law major with the goal of becoming a corporate lawyer. My academic and professional interests center on the intersection of business and law, particularly how legal frameworks shape corporate governance and decision-making. I have developed strong analytical and critical thinking skills through experience reading and interpreting court documents, as well as studying the impact of historical figures and legal precedents on modern systems. My background has strengthened my ability to research, evaluate complex information, and communicate effectively—skills that will serve as a foundation for my future legal career. I am eager to expand my knowledge through internships, research opportunities, and professional experiences that will prepare me for law school and a career in corporate law.
