My name is Elia Despradel and I am currently in my second year at Washington University in St. Louis School of Law. Before law school, I received my bachelor's in social work from Belmont University and worked in the nonprofit space in Nashville, TN. During my time in law school, I have worked in eviction defense, and I plan to pursue a career in public interest law following my graduation! I love any opportunity to serve my community and I am excited to connect more with St. Louis.
