All of us at MyLLife are pleased to introduce one of our MyLLife Scholars 2024 Cohort members, Kate Karstens!
I am a rising 2L at William & Mary Law School interning with the Appellate Government of the U.S. Navy JAG Corps in Washington, D.C. This summer, I will provide support for the Navy and Marine Corps Trial Counsel Assistance Programs with case research and brief writing on behalf of the government. I will attend court at both the Navy-Marine Criminal Court of Appeals and the Court of Appeals for the Armed Forces. Serving those who serve our country is an honor, even for eight short weeks. I chose to apply to MyLLife after speaking with a previous recipient whose experience supported her aspirations to become a judicial clerk. MyLLife is determined to assist students compelled toward public service work, as I am. Now I am experiencing the same support for my professional ambitions to ensure justice for our service members.
