Legal Intern, Nairobi, Kenya

As a legal intern ,I applied my academic knowledge as a law student to real-world scenarios. I conducted thorough legal research, analyzed case precedents, and contributed to the development of legal strategies. Working closely with senior attorneys, I gained insights into various areas of law, including international relations.

Additionally, I actively participated in client meetings, helping to prepare legal documents and providing support during negotiations. This experience enhanced my understanding of effective communication in a professional legal setting. Furthermore, I collaborated with the team to address legal challenges, demonstrating my ability to work within a dynamic and collaborative environment.

My role also involved drafting legal memos, which honed my research and writing skills. This internship not only allowed me to apply classroom knowledge but also provided valuable exposure to the practical aspects of legal practice.

Currently pursuing a Bachelor of Laws (LLB) at the University of Nairobi, I am actively engaged in legal studies with a focus on international relations. Commenced studies in 2022, and ongoing, this educational background equips me with a solid foundation in legal principles and an understanding of global perspectives, aligning with my passion for effective communication and advocacy.
