Graduate school is not without its challenges, but I think the education I received at USCA well prepared me for a competitive program. In August 2016, I began a Masters at the Patterson School of Diplomacy and International Commerce at the University of Kentucky, focusing on international development, and comparative politics. At Connor & Connor, I used the research skills I acquired as a history major to draft memos, court documents, and meeting summaries. In March 2016, I was hired full-time as a paralegal with Connor & Connor, LLC, a law firm in Aiken that focuses on nursing home negligence cases. As she says “all we have to do is be persistent, cherish the good, work through the bad and enjoy the ride until it’s over.”Īfter graduating from USC Aiken, I interned with the Aiken County Government Risk Management Office and worked part-time with the USC Aiken Athletics Department. Learning from others and taking advantage of opportunities have been a major part of Alesha’s journey, and thank goodness she has made some lasting footprints of her own.
