As a Black immigrant teenager, I dreamed of becoming a lawyer, even though I didn't see many examples who looked like me. In my 20s, I worked as a legal assistant for a lawyer who encouraged me to follow my dream. There were mountains to climb along the way, but I'm so grateful for her push. There are big rewards when we have the courage to push through our fears and obstacles to make positive changes.
