In addition, I had the honor of serving as a Staff Writer for The Scholar (St. Mary’s Law Review for Race and Social Justice) where my ‘Comment’ was accepted for possible publication in the Georgetown Journal for Poverty Law and Policy. I also served as a Brief Writer and Oralist for the highly coveted and successful External Advocacy Program (EAP) Moot Court Team.
