Julisa Morones Luna (Summer/Fall Intern 2024)
MEDIATION INTERN - What attracted me to mediation was the resolution of conflict. It makes me happy to help people to resolve their issues in their lives that they cannot come to an agreement with alone. I love it because it is different from law - there’s no opinion on either side just neutrality. I am hoping to broaden my experience with mediation due to there being different cases to go through with many different personalities as well.
