Introducing our Executive Board Member
Hi, everyone! My name is Shalanda Renee Plowden and I am a 2L at CWRU School of Law. My focus is an international business and I plan on practicing at a firm, but I would like to branch out into politics in the future. Something interesting about me is that I recently joined the university's jazz ensemble and I will be playing the drum set. Also, I love to sing, dance, and make music in my free time. I also love to draw.
