Shaping My Career Beyond UO: Annie Borgen
My experiences in forensics (UO Mock Trial, specifically) was instrumental in pursuing my legal career. Post-graduation, I coached UOMT for a year. Subsequently, I interned at the Maui County Prosecutor’s Office. Currently, I am a 3L law student at the William S. Richardson School of Law. I am an oralist and a captain of our schoolʻs Jessup International Law Moot Court Team, of which my interest to join was sparked by my mock trial experiences. I am also a current coach of King Kekaulike High School’s mock trial team in Maui, passing on the knowledge I learned from UOMT. This past summer, I was judicial extern to the Chief Justice of the Hawaiʻi Supreme Court. All of these experiences connect back to UOMT and I talk about my experience in the program at all of them.
