“I came to Berkeley Law because I wanted to find purpose in my life, and I couldn’t think of a better way to do that than by going to law school. Berkeley was right around the corner—I was living in San Francisco for about four years before—and this is just such a sunshine community. People are very friendly, the professors are really accessible, and there’s a ton of opportunity here.” — 2L Cristina Pullen Q: Do you have a specific path in law you want to pursue? A: Even as a 2L, I still think it’s pretty early, but my interests lean toward consumer protection, antitrust, and general impact litigation. Q: Is there a reason why you wanted to get to this point? A: I had a fellowship with the California Lawyers Association Antitrust and Consumer Protection Section last summer, and I got to experience this legal area in practice for the first time. In a nutshell, antitrust and related fields are what preserve the American Dream for everybody. It’s not just fighting and breaking apart monopolies—it’s moving corporations with a lot of power to use that power for good. Having worked at a big tech company before law school, I’ve seen both the amazing and not-so-amazing things companies with money can do. My mission is to inspire people to use the law as a foundation to positively impact our society. #BerkeleyLaw
