Earned Juris Doctorate with Distinction

After completing her undergraduate degree, she was happy to attend the
University of North Dakota School of Law. She chose the University of
North Dakota School of Law because she loves the snow, wanted a small
law school, but more importantly was again, paying for education on her
own. Marie started law school thinking she would be a law librarian;
however, during first year when students were required to do a moot court
argument the litigation “bug” got her when the “nerves and adrenaline” of

the first argument came flooding in. After that first moot court class, she
shifted her to focus on an educational pathway geared towards litigation.
While at the University of North Dakota, she received the highest grade in
Evidence and she was Inducted into the Order of Barristers. Marie
received an Award for Best Moot Court Petitioner Team, Best Moot Court
Petitioner Brief (Perfect Substance Score), Best Moot Court Speaker
(Perfect Oral Scores), and Best Overall Moot Court Team.
