Environmental law
Involvement
I have served as secretary and treasurer of OutLaws and vice president of the Environmental Law Society (ELS). I am currently a co-president of ELS and the marketing, business, and events editor for the Seattle Journal of Technology, Environmental, and Innovation Law.
Passion
My passion for environmental law evolved from my love for animals and nature as a child. From the time I was in middle school, I have been involved in organizations focused on environmental sustainability. As I have continued in my educational journey, my understanding of environmentalism has expanded and centered on environmental justice issues, such as the right to a healthy environment for everyone.
