Abhinav Mishra 

A spring 2020 graduate, after graduation Abhinav plans to attend law school to pursue a JD. Beyond his legal studies, Abhinav aims ultimately at a career in Virginia politics with the issue of health care reform at the top of his list. Originally from Nepal, he lived for a significant period (two formative years) in the UK before coming to America. He considers Virginia to be his home, since he has been living here for the past eight years. Abhinav wishes to extend his thanks to Professors Benedict Carton and George Oberle, whose mentorship honed his historical skills and made him a better writer, researcher, and scholar of history.
