In 2000, I was born in Las Vegas, Nevada. I can tell you a lot about it.
In 2022, I was a junior/senior in undergraduate. Alongside beloved comrades, I found fire in fighting for the working class and the better day. I was a core organizer and founder of Student Worker Collective at Dartmouth, the fifth NLRB-recognized undergraduate workers union. With SWCD, I negotiated one of the strongest contracts in higher education. On the side, I did some work with Korea Peace Now!. I performed research on US intervention in Haiti and deportee politics with Professor Chelsey Kivland, and on left framings of US geopolitics and sovereignty with Professor Patricia Lopez.
Then two roads diverged in a wood as I considered a JD or a PhD. Union work had me hungry for the practical, and so I went with the former. (I've simply put a pin in the latter; I still miss the work of research.)
In 2023, I graduated from Dartmouth College summa cum laude, valedictorian, and class marshal with a BA, double majoring in Anthropology and Geography with Honors. I received some awards for my trouble. After a lengthy break of two months, I went from the forest to the farm. I started my 1L year at Stanford Law. I joined the Workers' Rights and Housing Pro Bono Projects.
In 2024, I finished my first year of law school. Alongside the usual doctrinals, I took classes in labor law, advanced civil procedure, and modern American legal thought. I joined the Stanford Graduate Workers Union. I took on leadership of Stanford's NLG chapter. I became a Research Assistant for Professor Shirin Sinnar, investigating universities' discourse on and repression of peaceful student protestors from a Rule of Law framework. In the Summer of 2024, I was lucky enough to become a Peggy Browning Fellow with the wonderful and militant UE Union's legal team. UE holds some of the most dedicated folks and longtime union siblings I've ever seen. I also found a soft spot in my heart for Pittsburgh. I'm now back in Palo Alto for the Fall quarter of my 2L year. I organized with and bargained for Stanford Graduate Workers United-UE, helping win our first contract.
In 2025, I finished up my 2L year as president of our NLG and SLSJP chapters, among other things.

I've formed interests in labor law (both domestic and international), civil rights, and related criminal law, especially around and against the suppression of left organizing and First Amendment rights to dissent. I'm looking to continue this work.
About pages and documentation of this sort tend to aggrandize the individual. Everything I have done; everything I do - it is impossible without the people I work with and for. As the 1918 E.V. Debs Canton, Ohio speech goes: "It has enabled me to hold high communion with you, and made it possible for me to take my place side by side with you in the great struggle for the better day."
⸻ In my spare time, I love fiddling with tech and flex that I am top percentile in an autochess game (TFT). My top WPM is 160-170. I'm a classically trained flautist. I love long sunset drives and bodies of water. I also really love stationery and pens and have opinions about fragrance.
Here's a blurry picture of me studying for my 1L Property final at jail support.
