I'm very excited to start working for Judge Leventhal. Since I will have greater responsibilities than just making copies and getting coffee, I'm sure it will be a great experience. I hope to learn about judging in general, and especially about how the dangerous and somewhat addictive field of domestic violence is handled. If I perform well enough, I might even be able to work for Judge Leventhal in the future, which can be helpful since I intend to pursue a career in law. Since it is a small office, I hope I don't piss anyone off.

My primary reason for doing this internship to give something back to the organization, which sent me to China. Since the organization is switching hands come September, I want to see if i can help make the transition go smoothly. It prompted a genuine interest in China for me, and provided me with a really amazing summer, and now knowing the value of my experience, I want to be able to make sure others can have the same opportunity. I am also excited to work under Hazel, because she has pretty much helped the organization survive by herself for the past few years. It is hard to keep a non-profit alive, and her knowledge may help me in the future, because I intend to continue my support of various breast cancer research groups. |
