About (request update)

My name is Naja Revell. I am a Junior at Morgan State University with a Major in Sociology and Minor in Pre-Law. I have a 3.8 GPA, eager to apply my skills in a legal role. I have four plus years of work experience holding positions such as a Law Clerk, DEIB intern, Peer Mentor, Kumon tutor, and Tech intern with a strong ability to assist with clients, manage tasks, and resolve issues, all while maintaining a strong work ethic.

While being a student leader I also have many academic achievements by consistently remaining on Dean’s List since I began college, receiving the Academic Trailblazer Award (2023–2025), Academic Excellence Award (2024), Scholarly Merit Award (2024–2025), Leadership Award (2025), and Advancing Community Award (2025).

Current Whereabouts:

Reading and listening to Music

Life & Professional Aspirations:

I want to become a Criminal Defense Attorney and own my own Law Firm one day.

Education (request update)

Morgan State University class of 2027

Undergrad Major: Sociology

Claim To Fame:

Becoming a Student leader as the Founder and President of my organization MSU Mock Trial, Being Secretary of Sigma Delta Pi, and being a Peer Mentor has allowed me to make so many connections with those on my campus and off it. However my "Claim To Fame" is definitely being the Founder/President of my organization as that is what people recognize me from around campus.

Most Memorable Moment:

Other than starting my organization, it has to be the surreal moment of traveling with my team to our first Invitational competition and winning our first ever round at SUNY Geneseo University in Upstate NY. I couldn't have imagined beginning out that this is where we would be and just to see something grow from the start of chasing a dream and for it to become a reality is honestly surreal but the fact that others around me believed in the dream as well and ME that was the most memorable because it made me realize that the only person who can get in the way of my dreams is me.
