Alumni Story-Nicole Sammon

While law school was not always Nicole Sammon’s career path, she knew she wanted a career that would be intellectually challenging, which also allowed her to make a positive impact on her community. “I have always been passionate about advocacy work, primarily environmental and LGBTQ+ based, and the legal field allows me to turn that passion into a career,” Nicole said.
‌
Immediately after undergraduate school, Nicole pursued a career in environmental education where she worked for the Walt Disney Company in their Animal, Science, and Environment Department.
‌
Now, a rising 2L at Haub Law, Nicole is pursuing the advanced certificate in environmental law. Through her work in the environmental field prior to law school, educating and advocating for conservation, Nicole learned about the impacts that environmental negligence has on low-income communities.
