She was also voted outstanding associate editor of the Animal Law Review, the nation’s first law review dedicated to animal rights, and received an award for excellence in legal writing. While earning her law degree, Kaci worked as a law clerk at Emerge Law Group. Prior to attending law school, Kaci worked as a paralegal in Colorado and Oklahoma.
