Your journey to law school began at 7, yes?

Yeah, I guess you could say that! I was 7 when I first testified in front of the Nevada Legislature. I was working with my assemblywoman at the time to take smoking out of grocery stores, and later testified for the bill that took smoking out of Nevada’s restaurants.

As a proud northern Nevadan and graduate of the University of Nevada, Reno and Reno's McQueen High School, how have you enjoyed your last three years here in Nevada's southern half?

As much as my Northern Nevada family will probably hang me by my toes for saying this, I have loved my last three years in Las Vegas! There is so much to do down here, and I found a support system in my friends at Boyd that have really become my family. Also, the whole 75 and sunny for half of the year thing can’t be beat, even if it means dealing with 120 in the summer!

What's your biggest takeaway from your time as editor-in-chief of the Nevada Law Journal? 

Oh man, where to start! I think my biggest takeaway would just be the amount I’ve grown as a person and professionally. Being editor-in-chief has challenged me in so many different ways, but has been incredibly rewarding. Looking back on my time at Boyd, it is the experience that has made the biggest impact on me, and I am so grateful to have had the opportunity.
 
Following graduation and the bar exam, where to?
 
I will be clerking for Justice Mark Gibbons at the Nevada Supreme Court in Carson City and then returning to Las Vegas to work for Bailey Kennedy, where I was a summer associate last year.
