Emily Durkee '20 Recruiting Profile

Hi, I'm Emily and I want to study law. Ever since day one my family and friends have said that being a lawyer is something I should pursue. I have a very competitive attitude that I apply to all aspects of life. I never back down to anything. This pushes me to do better in school and play better on the volleyball court. Although I have had a lot of loses in my high school career I have never given up! I push and work my hardest until the end of the game. I would do the same in court. Try my best to win every case and do my very best until the final verdict. I am the type of person who always wants to help when someone else is in a bad spot. Whether that is making a teammate smile on a bad day, even defending someone in court, or helping a victim get justice for what has happened to them. With my competitive attitude and always wanting to help, I feel studying law is the best fit for me.
