What drew you to a career in law?

If I am being honest, throughout most of college I was a liberal arts major without a defined career path. I thought I might be a writer or a professor. I took the LSAT just to keep my options open, but I did pretty well so I decided to apply for law school. I really had no idea what I was getting into, but today I am so glad I became a lawyer and I love my practice. I feel lucky that being a lawyer was ultimately a good fit for me.
