I need to have space to express myself | Asha Rangappa '96

Asha Rangappa ‘96, is the Dean of Admissions at Yale Law School and a former FBI agent.. Q. What makes you so happy with your job? A. What I found with my jobs is that I need space to be creative and to express myself in some authentic way. The job I have now gives me a lot of different opportunities to do that. I can do that when I'm talking to people and meeting with students, which is really fun. I had a blog for a while that I gave advice on. I had chances to teach over the last four years. I teach National Security Law and related courses. That’s has also given me a way of expressing my thoughts and opinions. I write op-eds for mainstream media. So I would say expression and having outlets to be my authentic self in some way has been really valuable to me. I would not want to give that up unless it was for something where I could do the same thing.
