Portrait with Zachary Maxwell Stertz
“I’m very independent in my mind set. I can set goals and try and achieve them. I have the willpower to do things.
I would love to become a lawyer. It’s like my dream ever since I was five years old. I guess I want to become a lawyer because when I was five, my father passed away, my adoptive father, and before he got to take his bar exam he passed away. So, I always told myself that I was gonna finish what he started in a sense.
I want to be a paralegal. I guess like criminal justice cases. I would see myself being the first person at rape cases, murder cases, to try and step in and see justice. So, if I had a chance to help somebody else out, I would definitely be right there front and center.
Justice is given to victims when the people who do bad things get prosecuted for their actions. Cause I see a lot of people...I’ve seen a lot of people get away with things that they've done.
I want to be seen as really professional, not too flashy because It's just not me. But just enough where someone is like “Okay, she looks like she is a future lawyer.” You know what I mean? Dress the part.”
