Catherine is a Double Duck at the University of Oregon in her third-year of law school at 21. Inspired by her father’s business, she pursued her B.S. in accounting. However, after observing political division in her hometown, she was driven to become an advocate. She became passionate about the intersection of civil rights and age throughout her educational journey as a younger scholar. Recently, she wrote about addressing reverse ageism by encouraging one to be viewed by merit and fitness, rather than age, using themes of intergenerational cooperation and individual professional development.
