What drew you to a career in law?

People have told me I should be a lawyer for as long as I can remember. But since no one else in my family is a lawyer, I didn't understand what they meant until I was in college. Once I started to understand more about what lawyers really do, I realized everyone was right. I have always loved reading, writing, building arguments, and solving complex problems. No matter our specific areas of law, those are the types of things we do every day as lawyers.
