Summary

My name is Nick, and I am a 24-year-old recent graduate from the University of Utah, where I earned degrees in Philosophy and Anthropology. I've always been deeply curious about how people think, live, and interact-both in the past and present-which has driven my academic path and professional interests. Whether I'm assisting with research on child development, interpreting legal conversations in Spanish, or surveying archaeological sites in the Utah backcountry, I bring a strong work ethic, focus, empathy, and a genuine enthusiasm for meaningful work. I pride myself on being a reliable, observant, and thoughtful teammate. Also, I'm fluent in Spanish (currently pursuing official SIELE classification), highly organized, and thrive in intellectually challenging environments that push me to learn quickly, think critically, and connect with others across cultural and linguistic boundaries. I plan on attending law school in Fall 2026.
