Back to All Mathematics Spotlights

Currently I am employed as a Paralegal at a small law firm. I work on everything from real estate closings to research and brief writing for civil rights litigation. I am enrolled in the evening division of the New England School of Law and have just completed my first year of classes.

My mathematics education has helped me in an uncharacteristic way. Although I don’t work with numbers or proofs, I have found that the methods for compiling and analyzing data that I learned at Saint Michael’s have helped me every day at work and at school. I use these skills when reading and outlining cases for class and also when organizing and developing conclusions for writing legal briefs. I have found that knowing how to read and efficiently process large amounts of data, regardless of the subject matter, is an invaluable tool.
