Welcome to my website! My name is Sara. Here, I document my incredible journey as a single mom, navigating the challenges of law school while striving to provide for my two beautiful children, ages 3 and 4. Life is not easy for me, but through perseverance and the unwavering support of my family members, I have overcome numerous obstacles to pursue my dreams.
Growing up, I witnessed the strength and resilience of my own mother, who raised me and my brother as a single parent. We faced financial hardships and uncertainties. However, my mother's determination and unconditional love provided me with the foundation to believe in myself.
As a first-generation college student, I had the privilege of attending the University of California, San Diego after completing community college in nearby Orange County. It was there that I discovered my passion for the law and realized the potential it held for social mobilization. The law became my beacon of hope—a tool through which I could effect change and contribute to a more equitable society.
Continuing my journey, I pursued my legal education in San Diego, knowing that it would not be an easy path. Juggling the responsibilities of law school with the demands of being the sole parent to my little ones is a constant battle. Yet, with every sleepless night and every hurdle I face, I found solace in the unwavering love and support of my family.
Though my mother passed away before I received my acceptance to law school, I am incredibly grateful for the presence of my grandmother, brother, and aunt, as well as my two cousins. They have been my pillars of strength throughout my educational journey. Their constant encouragement, understanding, and belief in my abilities have been instrumental in my success thus far not only in law school but as the only parent to my two girls.
In documenting my experiences through this blog, I aim to share the highs and lows, the triumphs and struggles, of being a single mom in law school. I hope that my stories and insights will inspire others who face similar challenges and encourage them to pursue their dreams, despite the obstacles that may stand in their way.
Join me as I navigate the complexities of legal education, balance my responsibilities as a parent, and draw strength from the bonds of family. Together, we can prove that with determination, resilience, and a loving support system, we can overcome any adversity and achieve our goals.
