Voices from the Wilderness
Justice has always been more than a theory to me — it’s been lived, questioned, and fought for. I grew up in systems that preached righteousness but excused abuse, that claimed holiness while covering for injustice. I saw the way faith was used to silence women and children, to turn away immigrants, to ignore the oppressed. Those experiences shaped not only my deconstruction, but also my calling into the law.
This section is where I weave those stories together. You’ll find personal reflections on what it means to grow up inside a broken religious system, lessons I’ve carried into my legal training, and honest explorations of where faith, politics, and the law collide. Sometimes I’ll share my own experiences of harm and survival; other times I’ll unpack bigger questions about morality, fairness, and power.
At its heart, this space is about reckoning with hypocrisy while holding onto a vision of something better — a world where justice is not selective, where dignity is not conditional, and where compassion is not reserved for a chosen few.
