Her Own Words
"One of the wonderful things about William & Mary Law School is that you can truly turn any idea you are passionate about into reality thanks to the sincere guidance and encouragement of the faculty and staff. When I founded the Latino Law Students Association, I realized that you don’t just attend William & Mary as a student – you become part of a family. Students, professors and administrators alike continuously demonstrated their support by always being available, both to provide practical suggestions for accomplishing my goals, and, of course, to celebrate my accomplishments."
