Mentor: college/law school admissions, legal careers, criminal justice reform
I am a lawyer and a professor who is on the Council on Foreign Relations and the Gucci Changemakers Council. I am looking to help with: * mock interviews for college (I have interviewed applicants at the University of Pennsylvania for 15+ years) * law school applications (I served on law school admissions committees and reviewed hundreds of applications) * navigating law school (I was a tenured law professor) * early legal career decisions (I have been a lawyer for 16 years and have experience in the public and private sector) * understanding criminal justice (I've worked on criminal justice issues during a program at the Supreme Court) * anything (I happen to be an expert on The Wire, Fresh Prince, and the NHL) I am happy to help anyone, and am especially excited to hear from those who do not have an existing academic or professional support system, whose parents are immigrants, or who are the first in their families to pursue college or law school. As someone who benefited from generous mentors, I am duty bound to now do my part and help support the next generation of lawyers and leaders.
