FinalistBio
I am a first-generation rising sophomore at Fordham University, on a pre-law track, double majoring in International humanitarian Studies and Political Science, with a minor in bio-ethics.
I have a keen interest in growing my skills within the international development sector as well as an interest in pursuing a possible career in medical malpractice law on an international scale.
This is rooted in my genuine concern for the well-being of others, and my personal experience of having a family member lose their life due to medical negligence.
Overall, regardless of what path I take in life, I know that I have a passion for change and justice and that is my lifelong pursuit within my purpose.
