Gracious. Articulate. Cheerful. Wise.

Aretha Delight Davis exudes all of these qualities, along with an impressive intellect and a humility that belies her enormous accomplishment.

During her last few weeks at Morgan Lewis, where she represented individuals and corporations as a litigator, Davis paused to reflect on her decision to leave the security and prestige of a major law firm to undertake the rigors of Harvard Medical School.

“I think it’s always been there in the background, this desire to pursue medicine. But when I was making the choice in my senior year of college, I chose law school over medical school because I’d had such wonderful experiences in community service. I loved being an advocate,” said Davis. “I still do.”
