Additionally, I work as a volunteer at Legal Hand, a non-profit organization, we provide free legal information, assistance and referrals to residents in low-incoming neighborhoods, we also assist with issues that people may face such as housing, family, immigration, employment and public benefits. Legal Hand is where my interest in the law began and the inspiration to choosing my current major. Through Legal Hand I’ve also attended workshops and seminars conducted by LIFT (Legal Information for Families Today) another non-profit organization that focuses on providing legal information to families, its sole focus is on Family Law. I’ve also involved myself in volunteering for the Republican Party and working at my local polling station. After class, I attend Brooklyn Music School where I continue to learn and grow as a musician, I am devoted to playing my guitar, as my father who bought me the instrument, is the inspiration to me learning and playing effectively. Besides work, volunteering, going to college and music classes, I attend services at Bible Baptist Church located in Crookston, Minnesota, I am a devout Protestant and enjoy listening to hymns.
