My name is Victory Lee. I’m a senior at Yale University passionate about the intersection of law, policy research, and languages. I was born and raised in South Korea until I moved to America about ten years ago. Having moved 17 times in my life, it is my second nature to adapt to and learn from unfamiliar environments. I aspire to live a life filled with cultural diversity–from the new cuisines I try cooking, in the new cities I travel to, and in the depth of exchange I pursue in small and big interactions with friends, clients, and strangers. In America, my work with the immigrant and refugee communities has fueled my passion to live amidst their rich diversity and work for underprivileged communities in the legal field. After graduation, I'm interested in working as a paralegal, research associate, or an interpreter, building on my previous experiences in non-profits, government agencies, and research organizations.
