Personal Introduction

I worked in finance after college. My job was lucrative; I loved my managers and my mentors. Material comfort and meaningful relationships were enough to suppress profound ambivalence about my actual work – until they weren’t. Our class has inspired self-reflection on this point: perhaps leaving was a subconscious flight from the ‘wrong side’. Perhaps I was split and coming here to pursue my passion to work in children’s rights law was an attempt to become whole. I’m enormously grateful for this revelation. It has refocused me on that passion, my reasons for attending law school, and ultimately my career ambitions.

Personal Introduction

Changed:
<
<
I spent my first two years out of college working in finance. I was comfortable there but realized I wasn’t passionate about what I was doing. I wanted the opportunity to make a meaningful and positive impact on people. I came to law school to pursue a career in children’s rights, specifically to represent children who are victims of abuse and neglect. This is a cause I’m personally passionate about, and I remind myself of that whenever I’m feeling uninspired by law school. I’m looking forward to this class and what I will learn about the law and about myself.
