Are you involved in any student clubs, orgs, etc. that enhanced your Penn State Law experience? If so, in what ways have they enhanced your experience?
I am involved in the Corporate Law Society and PDP. Both organizations offered great resources as I was starting law school and helped me figure out what type of law I was interested in pursuing. Also, both organizations have a great network base and are welcoming communities.

My favorite academic experience(s) has/have been working at the Entrepreneurship Assistance Clinic because I get to help real clients. My favorite social event has been the Penn State Football whiteout game against Auburn.
 
What externships/summer associates/clinics have you done? How has Penn State Law prepared you for that?
I worked at United Healthcare, Optum last summer where I conducted legal research for a subrogation litigation team and was a member of the Entrepreneur Assistance Clinic. Penn State Law was very informative from the beginning of what I needed to do to apply for jobs and clinics. Career Services is proactive in ensuring the students are charting their career paths correctly, and every staff member at Penn State Law has been willing to help me out if I ever had questions.
 
Where’s your favorite place to go outside of Penn State Law on the University Park Campus?
Old Main.
 
What do you like to do when you’re not studying?
I enjoy watching sports (especially basketball and football), reading, playing games with my friends, and going out to try new things.
