My name is Jurnee Robinson and I
am a senior at Tyee High School.

00:00:04.820 --> 00:00:07.530 align:middle line:84%
My leadership journey
started in middle school.

00:00:07.530 --> 00:00:09.420 align:middle line:90%
It started with Miss Moore.

00:00:09.420 --> 00:00:12.440 align:middle line:84%
She saw the spark in me
that I didn't think I

00:00:12.440 --> 00:00:13.800 align:middle line:90%
had when it came to leadership.

00:00:13.800 --> 00:00:16.530 align:middle line:84%
My freshman year was a
very big year for me.

00:00:16.530 --> 00:00:19.230 align:middle line:84%
It was probably when I laid
the most of my foundations.

00:00:19.230 --> 00:00:23.280 align:middle line:84%
I was in leadership class,
I was the treasurer for ASB,

00:00:23.280 --> 00:00:26.293 align:middle line:84%
and that was where it started
for all of my leadership

00:00:26.293 --> 00:00:27.960 align:middle line:84%
opportunities that I
took up from there.

00:00:27.960 --> 00:00:32.600 align:middle line:84%
It helps me feel really
involved in my community.

00:00:32.600 --> 00:00:34.980 align:middle line:90%
Running Start has been amazing.

00:00:34.980 --> 00:00:37.860 align:middle line:84%
It's been a really great
opportunity for me.

00:00:37.860 --> 00:00:42.000 align:middle line:84%
Once I took my first sociology
course over at Highline,

00:00:42.000 --> 00:00:45.020 align:middle line:84%
I realized that I love
analyzing the systems

00:00:45.020 --> 00:00:48.180 align:middle line:84%
that people interact with and
how they can be better improved.

00:00:48.180 --> 00:00:50.640 align:middle line:84%
I knew that law was
where I was going to go.

00:00:50.640 --> 00:00:54.860 align:middle line:84%
I got accepted to UW Seattle
into the pre-major for the law

00:00:54.860 --> 00:00:56.550 align:middle line:90%
societies and justice program.

00:00:56.550 --> 00:01:00.210 align:middle line:84%
After that, I am going
to go to law school.

00:01:00.210 --> 00:01:01.920 align:middle line:84%
Then I'm going to
become an attorney.

00:01:01.920 --> 00:01:04.280 align:middle line:84%
All of my experiences and all
the people that I have met

00:01:04.280 --> 00:01:05.670 align:middle line:90%
have made me future-ready.

00:01:05.670 --> 00:01:09.900 align:middle line:84%
Everybody around me that pours
into my cup, I consider family.

00:01:09.900 --> 00:01:11.970 align:middle line:84%
So every time that
I get up from bed,

00:01:11.970 --> 00:01:13.260 align:middle line:90%
I'm thinking about my family.

00:01:13.260 --> 00:01:14.927 align:middle line:84%
I'm thinking about
the people around me,

00:01:14.927 --> 00:01:17.630 align:middle line:84%
and what I can do
to fill their cup up

00:01:17.630 --> 00:01:19.930 align:middle line:90%
after they filled up mine.

00:01:19.930 --> 00:01:30.000 align:middle line:90%
