I am getting ready to start law school at the University of South Carolina in the fall, and I am interested in (eventually) working in the juvenile justice system. As an undergraduate, I majored in Psychology and Gender Studies. Together, these majors have peaked my interest in adolescent development, the role of the juvenile justice system, transfer to adult court, as well as intimate partner violence.I am particularly interested in exploring how juvenile courts can establish a good balance between its goals of rehabilitation and justice/retributive action.
