Summary
Enthusiastic legal professional with over 4 years of experience in the law firm setting, currently transitioning to a new chapter of my career as I pursue Boatswain’s Mate "A" school in the Coast Guard. As I gain technical and leadership expertise through my training, I look forward to returning to the legal field with a fresh perspective and enhanced capabilities. I am excited to blend my legal experience with my Coast Guard journey, ultimately aiming to create a meaningful impact in both fields.
