Lilia Aurora Avendaño AlmaJose LL.M. '26 is a practicing corporate and litigation lawyer from the Philippines. Drawn to Berkeley by her interest in technology and artificial intelligence, she is building on her legal practice while exploring how the law can keep pace with innovation. Beyond academics, her Berkeley Law experience has been shaped by the friendships, conversations, and moments of growth that come from being part of a global community. Her reflection is a tribute to the people who turned Berkeley "from a place of learning into a place of belonging." We're counting down to Commencement on July 24 by featuring members of the LL.M. Class of 2026. Graduates, share your Berkeley Law experience! Tag @BerkeleyLaw, and use #BerkeleyLaw2026 for a chance to be reposted. #BerkeleyLaw #LLM
