The rest ofmy week

I built it while trying to fit several hours of practice a day around a full course load. It breaks assignments down into what actually has to get done each day, and re-plans when a week doesn't go as expected.

I managed client intake, helped draft legal documents and kept case files in order. I sat in on client meetings with the attorneys, which is where I learned how much of litigation is preparation. I also set up and ran the firm's social media and PR.

I won an award in the USPTO trademark component, and the presiding judge singled out my oral argument in the mock Supreme Court exercise.

I'm a volunteer researcher at the Institute for Energy and Climate Strategies, which represents Micronesia at the UN. I compile briefing material for the negotiations, and I've also researched methane and its policy implications.

I'm a member of the organization. We play at hospices, retirement homes and senior centers throughout the year, bringing live music to people who can't go out to hear it.
