Myself

I am very interested and keen in pursuing my studies in the field of Law. As a person, I am very hard-working and driven, and with my excellent social and communication skills, I can excel in any environment. Also, my time in University offered me magnificent insight, where I had to push myself to work as hard as I can under pressure due to multiple assignments and deadlines, and work in a team for presentations and projects. Consequently, I see myself as dynamic and a team player, but I am also open to hearing the ideas of everyone with respect. Finally, with my organizational skills I am hopeful that I can provide support to any Legal Department.
