Q. Where are you from?
A. I am from
Hinesville, Georgia which is a small town south of Savannah.
Q. What does becoming a
lawyer mean to you?
A. I have always wanted
to be a lawyer (since I was about five) so becoming a lawyer means everything.
It is my chance to change the world and make it a better place no matter how
small that contribution is.
Q. What do you wish you knew
before you started law school?
A. How nervous of an
experience being cold called would be. I never thought that I would be so
afraid to answer a question about something I had read the night before.
Q. What surprised you most
about Regent?
A. How much the
students and faculty were a family. I had heard all of the horror stories from
other people at other law schools of students ripping pages out of books so
that other students could not get the information and many other things. None
of that happens here. Everyone wants each and every student to succeed.
Q. How is law school
different from your college experience?
A. STUDYING! My study
habits completely changed from college to law school. For college I would graze
the information and never needed to take notes on what I had read. For law
school I read and sometimes re-read assignments. There is not a page in any of my books that
does not have notes in the margins.
Q. What is your favorite
class so far and why?
A. Negotiations has
become my favorite class. To me this class is so practical. The thrill of being
in a room trying to come to an agreement has me looking forward to every
negotiation. I also learned a lot about myself in this class. The
professor’s teaching style is how I like to learn he is very hands on.
Q. What kind of law do you
hope to practice after graduation?
A. I originally came to
school with my heart set on becoming a criminal prosecutor. I have thought
about going into family law, particularly helping single fathers gain custody
of their children. But nothing is set in stone so I will go where I am led to
go.
Q. How would you describe the
group of your closest friends found here at Regent?
A. Crazy. We are always
laughing or doing something, there is never a dull moment even when we are studying
in a study room for several days.
Q. How do you prefer to
study?
A. I
like to be in a quiet room with my notes, book, and a study guide. Then I like
to meet with a study group to go over other hypothetical questions and go
through questions I have answered. I am an auditory learner so the study groups
tend to help a lot.
Q. What is your favorite book
of all time and why?
A. I really don’t have
one favorite that I can point to. I love to read, I wish I had more time to do
that during school. I do have a favorite genre however, and that is crime
mysteries such as those written by James Patterson and others.
Q. What is your favorite
Bible verse?
A. 1 Corinthians
10:13. “You have been
put to no test but such as is common to man: and God is true, who will not let
any test come on you which you are not able to undergo; but he will make with
the test a way out of it, so that you may be able to go through it.” God has and will always make sure that you find a way to overcome the situations when you feel like they are more than you can handle.
Q. If you could meet with
anyone alive or dead, who would it be and why?
A. The famous person I
would love to meet would be Sandra Day O’Connor because she is everything I
strive to be. I also would love to meet my Aunt Sarah, I have heard over and
over that I remind my family a lot of her and would like to see how much we
truly are alike.
Q. If you could have lunch
with any faculty member or administrator at Regent who
would it be and why?
A. Professor Duane hands
down. He has so much knowledge especially about trial practice. However, there
would need to be a series of lunches with him in order for me to feel as if I have
even scratched the surface of his knowledge.
Q. If you had an entire weekend available, what would you do in the Hampton Roads area?
A. There is so much to do in the area, but I would probably go to Colonial Williamsburg /Jamestown to see all of the historical sites.
