“I was an Ackerman Fellow in the summer of 2018. When I applied for law school, I was sure I wanted to practice environmental law. Before joining the Ackerman Fellowship Program, all of my internships were in environmental law. I applied for the Ackerman Fellowship in the interest of trying something new. I'm so glad I did. I loved working with and helping people directly. I learned about estate planning, probate, family law, and landlord/tenant law. Plus, I got to spend the summer in Charleston, SC! The Ackerman Fellowship reshaped my entire career trajectory, and I now work (happily) for an estate planning firm in Salem, Oregon. Thank you, CPBLS!!!”
