I am a French-trained lawyer with over three years of professional experience at the World Bank in Washington, D.C. I chose Harvard Law School for the depth and diversity of its course offerings. At Harvard, LL.M. students are not bound by concentration requirements and one can choose to enroll in any course offered by the law school and other schools at Harvard University. I was thus able to take advanced courses in corporate and financial law while familiarizing myself with cutting-edge issues in environmental law and the influence of climate change considerations on corporate governance for public corporations.
