I will be an attorney this year✨

26 days away from officially being a JD.

If you would’ve told pre-med me this was the path I’d end up on, I wouldn’t have believed you. I took a gap year after college to study for the MCAT, thinking medicine was the only way I could make a difference. But something shifted. One day, I picked up an LSAT book — just to “see” — and never looked back.

I applied late in the cycle, unsure but hopeful. And somehow, everything aligned.

Now, I’m stepping into my purpose as a criminal defense attorney this June.

For the girls with pivoting dreams, the ones who start late, and the ones who bet on themselves: this is your sign.

We’re just getting started. #lawyer #jd #graduation
