Cheyenne is a third-year History major and Russian minor. She enjoys learning about the history of gender at the intersection of law and society. She’s passionate about film (her favorite film is Wong Kar Wai’s In the Mood For Love) and enjoys spending quality time with friends and family. When she’s not studying for the LSAT or working on her research, you can find her in the kitchen baking, on the phone with her grandmother, or discovering all that Charlottesville and UVA have to offer.
