Throughout her time as a Law Links intern with the Johns Hopkins Health System Legal Department in 2017 and 2018, Daisheau “Shea” Player discovered that she could mesh her passions for science and law through a career as a medical malpractice attorney. After graduating from the Baltimore Polytechnic Institute in 2018, she enrolled at Dickinson College in Carlisle, Pennsylvania as a chemistry major. She received five scholarships from organizations such as the Delta Sigma Theta sorority, the Steve and Marjorie Harvey Foundation, and the Dickinson College Chemistry Department. As a resident advisor, chemistry tutor, athletics game assistant, and Academic Co-Curricular Excellence Peer Mentor, Shea gives back to her collegiate community through student engagement and peer mentoring. She also serves as the sophomore class president, member of the yearbook staff, and treasurer of the women’s club basketball team.

Her advice to future Law Links interns?

Network, stay in touch, and take the job seriously – “You don’t always know who’s watching, and what you do impacts all of the interns behind you.”
