Louie is a law student in my final year at UIC Law living in Chicago. He is a graduate of the University of Minnesota, Iron Man triathlon finisher, disability advocate, and is blind. Pursuing a life that breaks through the boundaries disabled people live with every day, he aims to bring this focus on disability advocacy and supporting vulnerable communities to his law practice in the coming year. As a guide to his able-bodied piers who have guided him, whether shouting directions on the way down the ski mountain or running alongside him for a race, He plans to steer a changing world towards a more inclusive future.

This convocation is also presented as a virtual webinar. Please register in advance if you would like to attend via Zoom. After registering, you will receive a confirmation email containing information about joining the webinar.
