Her Own Words
"The emphasis on the 'citizen lawyer' was a big part of what initially drew me to William & Mary. Community is important in law school; giving back is equally important in your practice as an attorney. William & Mary teaches that by offering opportunities to deepen the law school experience beyond the classroom. I really could not picture my law school experience anywhere else."
