Hello Dunsterites! I’m thrilled to be returning to Dunster this fall. My name is Princess Daisy (I often go by PD), and I recently completed my JD at HLS. I graduated in 2015 from Harvard College as an applied math concentrator, having moved to Cambridge from Accra, Ghana, via New Mexico. Prior to law school, I worked as an Associate with BCG in New York, and then as a Corporate Strategist with Microsoft in Washington DC. During my undergraduate years, I lived in Kirkland House, and was involved with HASA, The Seneca, PBHA, Kuumba, and the Marathon Challenge. Off campus, I explored my interest in global health advocacy through work in Brazil, Tanzania, and Kenya. At HLS, I worked as student attorney at Harvard Defenders, where I represented clients in criminal show-cause hearings. I also worked with the Dean of Students through Student Government to support extra-curricular life at HLS. Long-term, I hope to combine my interest in business, technology, and law in a career that impacts the world’s poorest populations. I am also learning to play the guitar, albeit at a snail’s pace… I would love to chat about LSAT prep, law, business, tech, global health, navigating Harvard as an international student, or anything, really. I’m excited to get to know you!
