    The thing I'm most passionate about in my life is becoming a lawyer.In the pursuit of a law degree, my primary goal is to use my skills to assist those who are in real need. My commitment to law and justice pushes me towards becoming an advocate for those who may lack a strong voice. I will be the voice for the voiceless. My interest in law is started by a genuine desire to contribute to positive changes in the world, particularly in supporting those facing challenges. As hard as this may be to do, it doesn't stop me, it feels like something I truly deeply need to do. From a young age, I always wondered one thing. How can I make a difference in the world? A question that grew inside me the more I understood the world, the more I learned about the struggles of the people beside me. I wanted a way to protect everyone, to fight for them, to be a voice for them, and from that very day, I knew I wanted to be a lawyer, not just any average lawyer. I aspire to be more than that. I need to fight for what is right in the world. It's a calling that refuses to be silenced, persistently drawing me back to the idea of lending a helping hand to those navigating the complexities of the legal system. It's more like a need that I have to do. One of my core aspirations is to extend the reach of legal assistance to communities that face many barriers to accessing legal justice. I am aware of the transformative power of legal resources and their capacity to profoundly impact the lives of individuals. I am driven by a sense of duty even to causes having to do with social justice. Without listening and understanding these struggles I wouldn't be the person I am today. They have led me to this path. My focus is completely centered around social justice causes and my passion is not just about pursuing a career but about making a meaningful impact in the lives of those who are struggling. I feel a need to do this thing, no matter what I end up coming back to the idea of needing to help people in this way. I recognize the transformative impact that legal resources can have on individuals, and I want to contribute to making these resources more accessible to those who need them the most. My commitment even extends to cases where individuals are truly innocent, aiming to be a supportive and guiding presence in their legal journey. I see it as a chance to bring compassion to the forefront, not only in individual cases but also in contributing to a broader shift towards fairness and care. I am dedicated to demonstrating that the practice of law can be not just about rules and regulations but also about empathy, making a difference, and fostering a more just and compassionate society. As I start this journey, I know there will be challenges, but my passion for justice, especially in immigration law, drives me forward. I'm dedicated to becoming a lawyer, focusing on immigration law. My long-term goal is to build my law firm. I want it to be a place where people feel supported. I'm eager to connect with others who share similar values. Together, we can make a positive impact in our communities, prioritizing empathy and fairness.

My interest in law is started by a genuine desire to contribute to positive changes in the world, particularly in supporting those facing challenges just like I was and still am facing. Since the age of 12, I've struggled with the idea of trusting people. Because of this same trauma I dealt with at 5 and again from the age of 8-14 years happening to me over and over I blamed myself telling myself I didn't fight hard enough to stop it from happening. To this day I haven't spoken out to anyone out of fear no one would believe me. I know this isn't fair to myself but I knew from so young I didn't want people to be afraid. I want to save others like I wish I was saved at those times. But I finally allowed myself to heal over time and the only talk about my struggles today is because without them I wouldn't be me. They have made me stronger and more resilient and because of this idea, I keep going.
