Major: International Studies and German Studies
Minor: European Studies

I am a corporate transactional associate attorney with GreeneHurlocker, a boutique energy law firm with a mid-Atlantic practice.

Favorite Professor and Classes

I owe all of my post college academic success to Dr. Grewling and the German program. Learning a new language gives you the foundation to be able to learn anything new or foreign to you. And Dr. Grewling's teaching style, class curriculums,  and personal investment in the success of her students was invaluable in figuring out how best I learn.

Fondest WC Memory

Living with my best friends in what was formerly Harford.

Let’s Hear It for the Liberal Arts

My classes in the International Studies and German Studies departments prepared me very well for law school. The small class sizes of each department and the one-on-one interactions with professors prepared me well for 2L and 3L style learning.

Advice

Go to office hours! Making personal connections with your professors makes all the difference.
