Before the J.D., there was the B.A.
I earned my bachelor’s degree from American University in Washington, D.C. — Law and Society, with Economics alongside it. Two majors, one city, and the beginning of everything.
American is where I learned to think about law not as a set of rules, but as a force that shapes societies. It’s where the economist in me was born, too — the one who would years later stare at a phone screen and learn to trade with one finger.
People ask me where the trader came from. It came from American University. The economist was there all along.
