Ethnography


            
             As I reflect upon my life, I view the seasons that have passed as stages of growth that have helped me to understand my potential and the path that I now wish to take. I have lived deeply and fully, and want to apply the valuable life lessons I have gained to what I feel is my true calling - the study of law. .
             As a youth, I believed that any pursuit was possible and one could succeed with commitment, persistence, and dedication. I was fortunate to possess the stability that a youth needs in order to excel in classes and build a proper foundation for the future. Life was difficult but fulfilling and I found much joy in being a wife and mother by the age of twenty-one. However, because of the untimely death of my husband, I found it necessary to work where I could support my daughter and myself. During the next twelve years, I was employed with a non-profit trade association. Starting with a secretarial position, I soon realized that my interest, competency, and potential would be best suited as an Equal Employment Opportunity Representative. I entered a new world of innovative ideas and social responsibility and gained the confidence and communication skills to defend the rights of minorities within this industry. Working closely with attorneys, researching legal issues and advocating for minorities gave me my first taste of law. Traveling within the United States and to many under industrialized countries where I lectured on Civil Rights and Affirmative Actions issues galvanized my aspirations of law. .
             As my life stabilized, I remarried and expanded my family. For the next ten years, I put my ambitions on hold so my spouse could pursue his medical career. However, the evolution of global economic, social, and political homogenization has been a major catalyst which has empowered the drive to pursue a legal education. This, in conjunction with my journeys to underdeveloped societies where [especially] women and children were subjected to blatant degradation and acts of dehumanization, further cemented my determination.
