“I am deeply honored to be recognized with the Outstanding Law Student Award by the University of Wyoming College of Law faculty and the National Association of Women Lawyers. This award is especially meaningful to me because it reflects the importance of leadership and supporting women in the legal profession. To me, it is a reflection of all the incredible women in my life who have shaped me into the woman I am today. After the bar exam, I will be joining the Wyoming Legislative Service Office as a legislative attorney in Cheyenne, Wyoming.”
