She earned her Juris Doctorate at Wayne State University Law School, where she served as student attorney for the Asylum and Immigration Law Clinic, won the Arthur Neef Competition for the Student Trial Advocacy Program, and co-wrote the nation’s highest scoring brief in Jessup International Moot Court.
