# Liyu Woldemichael Tutor Academic Specialty: Law ![LW](/sites/g/files/omnuum6341/files/styles/hwp_4_5__480x600/public/2026-05/Screenshot%202026-05-23%20at%203.42.29%E2%80%AFPM.png?itok=0pjykPF_) email Hi Dunster—I’m so excited to be joining the House this year as a pre-law and public interest tutor! My name is Liyu Woldemichael (she/hers), and I’m a JD candidate in the Harvard Law School Class of 2028. I’m deeply fortunate to be attending law school on a full-ride civil rights scholarship as a NAACP Legal Defense Fund Marshall-Motley Scholar, a program designed to power the South with a new generation of civil rights attorneys. A bit about me: I grew up in Montgomery, Alabama, attended Duke University, where I studied Public Policy and African & African American Studies, and have worked across the public interest space, including in government, education, nonprofits, and political advocacy. That work has brought me to Hawaii, DC, California, and Peru! I am always happy to connect and talk about these experiences or anything else! - ## Advising [Pre-Law](/advising/pre-law) - ## Role [Resident Tutors](/people/resident-tutors)
