Since childhood, I have always kept abreast with major developments across the world. However, I had a bias for topics in relation to human rights, especially topics related to the underprivileged in the society at large. The desire to champion for the rights of the underprivileged is one of the primary reasons I decided to pursue law. My pursuit of law is not only an economic endeavour but also a spiritual endeavour. I believe an LLM will heighten my participation and professional impact on the world. I am motivated and highly focused on obtaining an LLM.

As the first person to graduate from college in my family, I chose to vary slightly from the norm. I’ve always been something of an overachiever, throwing myself into the things I choose to do with definite zeal. I’ve always been passionately curious, so higher education always seemed like a logical choice for me. Pursuing that first Bachelor’s degree from the University of Michigan wasn’t easy, but quitting was never an option that I entertained. I loved learning and Criminal Justice studies too much to ever truly consider quitting.
In addition to my extensive education ...

“Sasha, ihre fahrt ist hier.” At my teacher’s demand, I ran from my seat with such enthusiasm that I have never experienced before, and left behind everything I owned. I raced to the parent pick up line where my mother stood eagerly waiting to inform me of what she thought was good news. My parents were in military, so I spent most of my early life apart from them as they relocated every three years. This day was not only peculiar in that my mother came to pick me up, but it was the last Thursday I would ...

Becoming an attorney was never a professional path that I considered as a young girl growing up in Armenia. I spent the first 17 years of my life in a beautiful and ethereal Eurasian country that has the distinction of possessing a rich and diverse cultural history that predates to ancient times. In 2010, my family and I made the difficult transition of immigrating to the United States (U.S.). Suddenly, I was an Armenian teenager living in the fast-paced and cosmopolitan New York City, quite ...

The organization of society is structured around particular systems. The legal system of a group or nation is dependent on many factors from diverse fields. Justice develops as a result of history, religion, culture, or necessity. In order to study the organization of justice among peoples, it is necessary to be informed of different theories of sociology, anthropology, and psychology. My bachelor’s degree in Communication from the University of California, San Diego, has prepared me for versatility in learning and through academic development I have discovered I am interested in studying law.

Throughout my life I have faced many challenges that took determination, perseverance, and discipline in order to overcome. During high school and throughout my undergraduate studies I dedicated myself to the ferocious sports of Kick Boxing and Mixed Martial Arts.

The recovery from this injury was brutal and I had to undergo four surgeries ...
