“Ms. Patel has extensive experience in prosecuting sex crimes, and often crosses many international borders in the process, including during her work in Southeast Asia,” said Prerna Rao, a second-year law student and the president of APALSA.
“The international aspect of her job--how to deal with foreign authorities, language and cultural barriers, and conflict of laws--is something that interests many of us.”
