    I’ve taken an introspective inventory of what keeps me coming back to the goal of pursuing a law school education and that is the chance to provide legal advice and a perspective from which clients can make sound personal and business decisions, even when emotions seem to be the driving force in their decision making. I can speak from experience having been in those shoes. I’m comfortable shedding my entrepreneurial career and wholeheartedly committed to becoming a full-time law student. I’m certain that every life experience, challenging crossroads, shed tears, and answered prayers prepared me for this moment in…

    Environmental sustainability is quickly transitioning from a problem for future generations to one of today’s most pressing issues. With Washington scrambling to produce legislation that will position America as a key player in climate talks, now more than ever the government has to make tough decisions regarding the energy sector. When facing said decisions, it is important to exercise caution while evaluating legislation that could alter the future of America’s economy. An example of such a bill is the Clean Power Plan, or the CPP, the newest piece under Obama’s Clean Air Act initiative, which aims to affordably reduce carbon emissions on US soil through the restriction and regulation of energy production. The Clean Power Plan should not become a law because it goes to extreme measures in order to achieve a nominal environmental impact, all at the cost of destroying the energy sector.…

    I am determined to make the most out of my time on earth, and after receiving that news from the healthcare clinic over a decade ago, I was forced to make a choice- it was a decision about who I would be moving forward. I have chosen to abandon feelings of trepidation and embarrassment and instead devoted myself to the pursuit of my greatest dreams. A career in law is one of those dreams, for I desire to learn how to impact policy formation and influence judicial decision making on matters pertaining to resource use, climate change, and energy consumption, and am excited to tackle a global issue that is so urgent and in need of a vigorous response. UCLA’s exceptional environmental law program, with its profound dedication to promoting law and policy solutions to climate change and other environmental problems, offers the best means, in my estimation, to make a career out of protecting something I hold dear. Tackling the most pressing environmental concerns is my goal, and UCLA Law provides the premier instruction on how to do so.…

    The need for construction and maintenance creates jobs, which are essential for the many unemployed members of society that are in dire need of a job. According to the New York Times, “China would create more than 13 million jobs in the renewable energy sector by 2020, curb the growth of greenhouse gasses that contribute to global warming and reduce the amount of soot that in recent days has blanketed Beijing and other Chinese cities in a noxious cloud of smog.” This shows the drastic effects and benefits of renewable energy sources and also reveals a large amount of jobs that have been institutionalized by renewable energy needs alone. Therefore, these jobs are also beneficial to the economy as investors also invest in renewable energy and it encourages the flow of currency and the increase of spending from person to person as jobs provide the people with…
