Why did you decide to attend law school? And more specifically UMKC?

I fell in love with the legal field after taking an introductory course during undergrad. Ever since then, I knew I wanted to attend law school. More specifically, UMKC. I chose this law school for many reasons, such as the fantastic location and affordability. However, the outstanding education that UMKC provides is what drew me in the most.

What has been the biggest challenge as a law student?

The biggest challenge I have faced as a law student is finding a more efficient way of studying. Studying for law school courses is entirely different from what I did in undergrad.

What are your interests outside of law school?

Weight training, sports, reading, traveling, and outdoor activities

What is one piece of advice you would give to future law students?

Do not be nervous to ask for advice. Everyone at this school is more than willing to assist.
