I was never overly stressed while attending law school and have kept that attitude during my entire career—I truly believe there is a way to excel as a law student or attorney but still maintain a happy, balanced life.

Clinics in Action

- Since launching in 2010, the Veterans’ Advocacy Law Clinic has assisted more than 1,600 veterans, representing them in veterans treatment courts, assisting with benefits cases and discharge upgrade cases, and making referrals to veteran-friendly nonprofits and attorneys.
- The National Institute of Justice awarded the University of Arizona Innocence Project a $278,000 grant to pursue DNA testing in criminal cases where testing has the potential to resolve claims of actual innocence.
