What you are looking forward to in 1L year?

I am really looking forward to the flag football league (LSFL) I keep hearing about. Half the point of going to law school is to continue my intramural sports career somewhere. It seems like a great opportunity to compete and make some new friends.

Hobbies/Interest?

In my free time I enjoy playing golf and pickup basketball.

Why W&L Law?

I have always loved this part of Virginia and that is partly what drew me to W&L. I feel like I will really enjoy life in Lexington over the next few years. I have also heard great things about the community of people at W&L and all the alumni I have spoken with have been very encouraging.
