My Best Experience at Penn Law:

The best experience of this year has been the International Afternoon!

Professor Who Influenced Me Most:

Professor Harry Reicher in International Human Rights. His talent, his love for the subject and his passion vividly convey his thoughts on Human Rights issues around the world.

My Favorite Course:

Negotiations because it taught me that everything has the potential to be negotiated – even if you originally thought that it could not. It has also gave me confidence as negotiator.

I am proud of my capacity of learning and having good grades in a language that is not my own.
