UCLA LAW — During the two years since she made her first Instagram post – in which she asked her followers to weigh in on how to navigate the law school application process – UCLA School of Law student Luz Murillo ’24 has emerged as a popular storyteller, sharing many of the ups and downs of her law school journey. Her Instagram page, Luz and Law, is a must-read for many future and current law students who wish to follow in her remarkable footsteps – from community college to a top law school – and Murillo is keenly aware of the power of her example. Now in her second year at UCLA Law, Murillo is sure of many things. She wants to become a public defender. She believes access and representation can increase the amount of Latinx students who pursue and thrive in law school. And she believes storytelling – from Instagram sound bites to professional panels – is one of the best tools we have in doing just that. Here, we chat with Murillo about law school, Instagram and Women’s History Month.
