>> While I was an undergrad, my major's Human Development and Family Studies,
and I was also in Schreyer Honors College and I was kind of being pushed to think
about pursuing a PhD, and I was looking into that and realized I didn't really think
that was the track I wanted to go down, so I tried to think of other different ways.
I really like to, you know, the analytical thinking part of that, but I really wanted
to interact with people more, and I was worried that I could be a researcher and just kind
of sit in my little office doing my research project and not really get out to people
as much, and so I tried to look for other ways that I could do that.
And so I thought about law as a career.
I remember there was a -- one of my books in one of my HDFS classes, it was about different kind,
kind of -- the point was different you do with this major, and there were chapters on,
you know, social worker, teaching, and that sort of thing, and there was one sentence that said,
and some people going into the law, and I thought, hey, what about that?
And so I looked into it more, I you know, reached out to different like pre-law societies
and stuff like that while I was in school and decided to go for it.
