Life & Career Milestones
My path in life took a while to figure out
1.
I worked in my parents' NYC grocery store until one of the managers told me about law school.
2.
He started telling me about what lawyers did, which I had no idea prior to that time.
3.
The more I learned about the law, the more interested I became.
4.
I first obtained an Associate Degree from a Community College.
5.
I obtained my Bachelor's degree from Arizona Statue University.
6.
At ASU, I met many fine young people that further solidified my goal to go to law school.
Defining Moments
How I responded to discouragement
THE NOISE
Messages from Society in general:
I cannot say that I had noise from the outside. It was really my own internal noise not realizing my potential. I think that is all that was holding me back.
How I responded:
I think my story is inspirational. But I cannot blame outsiders for restricting my earlier potential.
Experiences and challenges that shaped me
I did not know what it meant to be a white collar worker, much less a professional. Both of my parents are immigrants and worked with their hands. That was all I knew growing up.
