From starting law school with an open heart and mind to explore, to viewing each opportunity as the chance to further skill development, Archie's mindset and belief in the importance of physical, mental, and spiritual health has propelled him into a career focused on bettering the lives of others, first as an Equal Justice Fellow with Bet Tzedek Legal Services (read more about his EJW fellowship here) and now in his current role as an Equity Attorney for Justice in Aging.
