“After the corps, I honestly plan on staying in the classroom for a couple of years. Eventually, long-term I do plan on getting a Ph.D. in education so I can continue research and advocacy on a greater scale”

“I want to go to law school, especially because of social justice. If you know anything about me, you know I love social justice—whether it’s race, gender—women’s equity.”
