How will the NCITD Scholarship help support you in your studies/prepare for your career?
The NCITD Scholarship will enable me to pursue meaningful opportunities like my current externship at the Department of Justice, support my legal education with an eased financial burden, and connect with NCITD’s network of international trade professionals.
Where do you see yourself in 5 to 10 years?
Over the next decade, I hope to transition from a compliance-focused role to legal position in the sanctions and export control space. I aspire to serve as trade counsel at a law firm, in-house, and/or in a government agency, contributing the development and enforcement of international trade policy.
