Reflecting on my journey, I’ve come to appreciate failure as a profound teacher. Five years ago, my path took an unexpected turn, leading me to make a career change. Despite initial uncertainty, I took a leap of faith and decided to start law school at the age of 34. Juggling full-time work and night classes was no easy feat, but it was a testament to my determination. As I prepare for the Louisiana bar exam, I’m humbled by the opportunity to contribute to the nexus of law and the healthcare sector, focusing on contracts, compliance, and regulatory matters. This journey has taught me the power of pivoting and remaining flexible in the face of adversity and uncertainty. Here’s to second chances, embracing change, and staying true to oneself.
