Milestones
My road in life took a while to figure out.
I got into Loyola Law School and studied hard to get a juris doctor and multiple other degrees. Some of these degrees helped me get to where I am today because I worked different roles.
Transferred to my dream school, UCLA. There, I achieved my bachelor's of science degree to officially start my practice. This was a very vital milestone for my career—it is most relevant and helpful.

I meet with my clients to discuss their goals and what I will do to protect or help them. Usually, I act as an advisor and tell them which beneficial actions to take. I also organize clients' work to make data analysis easier.
Advice for Getting Started
Here's the first step for college students
Figure out what kind of law you would like to pursue, then look for internship opportunities. See if you can shadow an attorney and sit in while they work to get experience. This not only teaches you a lot about the career, but also allows you to learn about myself—if you do want to work in that field and if your skills allow for success in it.
