My Early Life
Varsity
College
I graduated high school with honors and was accepted into Texas Tech University and began classes in the Fall of 2009.
I made the Dean’s List my first three semesters, and received accolade into two honor societies at the end of my freshman year.
Alpha Kappa Psi
One year later, I was elected to the officer position in charge of fraternity intramurals and rituals.
During the Spring Semester of my freshman year, I pledged the world’s most esteemed business professionalism fraternity.
Collegiate Polo
My junior year, I learned how to play “The Sport of Kings”.
After one semester of instruction, I now play on Tech’s junior varsity team, and took the position of Club Captain.
Political Science
Since high school, I have had a strong interest in government, and declared a major in Political Science my junior year.
After my basics, I began pursuing my degree of choice in Texas Tech’s College of Arts and Sciences.
Courses Taken
I have completed 73 hours of Political Science and Legal Studies Courses to date.
These include Deductive Logic and Ethics, and many Political Science courses including Asian Governments, International Political Economy, Political Parties, and Latin American Governments.
Legal Studies and Law School
Before declaring my major, I decided to select a minor in Legal Studies in addition to the Pre-Law program.
Shortly after graduation, I plan on going to law school in order to become barred in the state of Texas.
Holiday Inn Express
My first job in college was an evening shift desk agent at an up-and-coming hotel just outside of Lubbock.
I worked there for over a year, gaining practice in customer service and basic accounting skills.
Law Office of John Sims
The second half of my junior year, I gained employment with a powerful Lubbock attorney’s office.
This basic clerk job has allowed me to gain a basic understanding of the legal system, and continued practice in client relations.
Career Plans
After passing the State Bar exam, I plan on working for a small but powerful law firm in one of the smaller major cities.
After substantial experience in the field, my final goal is to start my own firm where I get to pick clients based on interest in the case rather than receiving payment.
