Yuly Campiño: Human Rights Advocate
From the small port city of Buenaventura, Colombia, to Boulder, Colorado, LLM student Yuly Campiño’s passion for advocacy has fueled her academic and professional endeavors. Her next stop? Washington, D.C., where Campiño will complete a competitive one-year fellowship at the Inter-American Commission on Human Rights.
Thomas Morales: Inspired by Supreme Court Arguments
Thomas Morales' story is one of constant evolution and skill-building that he hopes to use to help others with his new JD degree in hand. He will start as a litigation associate with Holland & Hart LLP in Denver with its construction practice group. But growing up in Carlsbad, California, Morales didn’t have his mind set on college.
Maren Rosenbach: Making Businesses More Ethical
Taking risks and challenging herself to step out of her comfort zone have characterized Maren Rosenbach’s career journey from a registered nurse to a budding ethics and compliance professional. With her newly minted Master of Studies in Law degree in hand, she hopes to effect change by encouraging accountability and equality in businesses.
Giancarlo Camillieri: Partnering with Communities on Environmental Concerns
With eight years of professional experience as an environmental and natural resources attorney in Chile under his belt, Giancarlo Camillieri chose the University of Colorado Law School to pursue his LLM degree in Natural Resources, Energy, and Environmental Law for its renowned faculty and small class sizes.
Hannah Regan-Smith: The Oral Advocate
Whether delivering oral argument before a panel of distinguished appellate judges in the law school’s Rothgerber Moot Court Competition or serving as editor-in-chief of the University of Colorado Law Review, Hannah Regan-Smith has approached challenges head-on during her time as a law student.
Omeed Azmoudeh: Driven to Litigate
Omeed Azmoudeh can’t get away from the law. He sees it everywhere, and he always has. Spotting legal knots in family life, personal finances, even nature, the Dallas, Texas-native always wanted to be a lawyer. That spirit of inquiry led him to the University of Colorado Law School.
Ellen Sandrock: Advancing a Career in Compliance
For years, Ellen Sandrock dreamed of furthering her education. A senior corporate paralegal at LogRhythm, Inc. in Boulder and former senior paralegal at Newmont Mining, she knew she enjoyed corporate governance and working alongside compliance departments. Her general counsel suggested she consider growing her skill set with a Master of Studies in Law degree in ethics and compliance from Colorado Law.
