“I am deeply honored and blessed to receive the Outstanding Law Student Award from the National Association of Women Lawyers! I stand in the footsteps of so many women leaders who have paved the way for me, and I hope to do the same for those who will follow. As a woman of color, this recognition affirms my commitment to uplifting our perspectives within the legal field. I am grateful to the faculty and staff of St. John's Law and the NAWL community for this nomination. This fall, I will begin my career doing transactional work as a first-year associate at a law firm in New York City.”
