1. Mentorship question: Describe your experience in how you found your mentorship? If you haven't found one yet, describe your experience so far in the search of a mentor. I went to a senior presentation by Nisa last year and her topic was Public Defenders and I am really interested in law. So I asked her if I could get into contact with her mentor, who then got me in at the West Covina Courthouse so I could volunteer/work with the Public Defenders there. Then, I spent almost all summer gaining as much experience as possible. For example, I got to be in the courtroom and listen to many different cases that involve drugs, alcohol, and domestic violence.
2. Research question: What has been your most important article you have read so far and why?
Honestly, the most important article I got was one that went into great depth about expungements. I think this has been the most important article because at my mentorship I spent just about all summer helping people fill out expungement forms and I was given a general explanation of what they were but after reading the article, the information just made a lot more sense.
