"I had the privilege of taking a summer study-abroad course on International Human Rights, specifically within the Inter-American System, hosted by Santa Clara School of Law. After completing my 4 weeks of studies, I had the opportunity of being an intern (pasante) with the Inter-American Court of Human Rights."
