I'm most proud of the work I've done representing individuals caught in the criminal and immigration systems. I gave a TED talk about some of this work here.
What classes/programs did you participate in while at Dana Hills?
The Paper and ASU Student Senate -- both wonderful and formative experiences!
What recommendations would you make to current Dana students looking to duplicate your success?
Ask lots of questions -- it makes you look smart, not stupid. Keep an open mind about your interests and abilities -- don't view them as already fixed. Above all, be kind to everyone!
