Through UC Irvine's Field Study program, I was afforded the opportunity to work as a Legal Assistant at the Veterans Legal Institute, where I was able to assist in interviewing clients and organizing files for in-house clinics, managed a high volume of confidential records, processes, and documents, as well as ensured prompt and professional responses to phone/email inquiries and displayed professionalism in all interactions.

Legal Intern, Manning Law Firm, APC

June - August 2016

As a high school student, I was gifted the incredible opportunity to shadow an attorney for the summer. As an intern, I drafted and distributed Notice of Error letters to clients to collect necessary or missing documentation to complete petitions and update information. I also organized and distributed files in the firm's database, concurrent with the existing filing system.

Research Assistant, Working Memory and Plasticity Lab - UC Irvine

January - August 2018

As a Research Assistant with UCI's School of Social Ecology, I was on a small team collaborating on an undergraduate research project for five months. Throughout my time on the team, I collected and cleaned data, administered various study components, and worked closely with participants to ensure the study would be corroborated with accurate findings. I made sure to pay close attention to detail, even a tenth of a percentage would have had detrimental effects to the research.
