B.A. American Indian Studies (2021)

Currently, I am taking a year off from academics to study for the LSATs while working part-time at Trader Joe’s. Since graduating in the Summer of 2021, I have moved back to my hometown of San Diego. In October I got engaged to my partner of 4.5 years! I am taking this time off to focus on studying for the LSAT. My plan is to apply to CSULB, SDSU, & UCLA or USD in their dual degree program of a Masters in Social Work and Juris Doctorate degree (MSW/JD). Once I am settled in. I am looking forward to volunteering within my local Indigenous Community & building my resume for my application for Grad school. Ultimately, I would love to get a certification in American Indian Law and/or manage a non-profit organization that specializes in providing support & resources for Indigenous communities.
