My ÈâÂþÎÝ Law

Sofia DeSimone ’26
“Outside of class, I love to eat lunch with friends in Washington Square Park, take a class at my local boxing gym, read romance books from the Brooklyn Public Library, and hang out with my cat, Tortilla. My favorite way to spend a day in NYC is spending time outside, either adventuring down different avenues, picnicking in the park, or taking the subway out to the beach in the summertime!”
