00:04
so i wanted to be a lawyer
00:06
because i wanted to fight for people’s
00:08
rights
00:09
one of the things that i noticed growing
00:11
up is
00:12
that there’s lots of entities and
00:15
corporations that have a lot of power
00:17
and with that power comes responsibility
00:20
but sometimes
00:22
those entities will abuse their power
00:25
and can infringe on people’s rights and
00:28
under those circumstances
00:30
i kind of found my passion in wanting to
00:33
help
00:33
those powerless people give them a voice
00:37
and give them an opportunity to seek
00:39
redress for their harms
00:41
so i would say overall my desire
00:44
to be a lawyer was to fight for people’s
00:46
rights
00:51
well i think to be successful in the
00:53
courtroom it takes someone who can think
00:56
quickly on their feet
00:58
the courtroom is a dynamic fast
01:01
changing fast pace type of process
01:05
and there’s a lot of moving parts
01:07
there’s times when you have to move
01:09
around your schedule because of
01:11
witness availability things don’t always
01:13
go according to plan
01:15
and so it takes someone who can adapt to
01:18
circumstances
01:19
and think quickly on their feet and be
01:22
