itemprop=\"text\" ><p>Note from Allie: \u201cPlease note that the reflections below represent my own personal views only and not the views of any of the organizations or firms where I work or have previously worked.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Allie Sipe graduated from 麻豆传媒女神 in 2017 with a Bachelor of Arts in English and a minor in Anthropology\/Sociology. During her time at SOU, Allie worked at the Tutoring Center as a writing tutor. Additionally, she participated in the National Student Exchange program with the University of New Mexico, where she worked on the literary magazine staff of Scribendi.<\/p>\n<p>After graduation, Allie moved to Providence, Rhode Island, where she taught middle school English and English as a Second Language through Teach For America. Allie loved working with students and families but got burned out teaching large classes, so she decided to make a career change. While scrolling through job postings, she applied for a job as a housing advocate for AmeriCorps Legal Advocates of Massachusetts: \u201cThat job, and my supervising attorney in that job, made me realize the importance of legal aid and the privilege of working for tenant clients.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Allie eventually moved back to the West Coast during the pandemic, where she worked as an intern at the District Attorney\u2019s Office as a library aide\/literary assistant in her hometown, Quincy, California. In addition to working, she spent that time studying for the LSAT and applying to law schools.<\/p>\n<p>She attended and graduated from Berkeley Law in 2024, took the bar exam, and began working as a housing advocate for a legal aid organization in San Jose, California. After passing the bar exam, her role changed to staff attorney in the housing unit of the organization.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><br \/>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-mazwbs59-d4c9c54f862e07b08e27084c3f55fbe8\">\n.avia-image-container.av-mazwbs59-d4c9c54f862e07b08e27084c3f55fbe8 img.avia_image{\nbox-shadow:none;\n}\n.avia-image-container.av-mazwbs59-d4c9c54f862e07b08e27084c3f55fbe8 .av-image-caption-overlay-center{\ncolor:#ffffff;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='avia-image-container av-mazwbs59-d4c9c54f862e07b08e27084c3f55fbe8 av-styling-no-styling avia-align-  avia-builder-el-10  el_after_av_textblock  el_before_av_textblock  pop-20'   itemprop=\"image\" itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/ImageObject\" ><div class=\"avia-image-container-inner\"><div class=\"avia-image-overlay-wrap\"><picture><source srcset=\"https:\/\/sou.edu\/academics\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2025\/05\/Allie-Sipe-graduating-Berkeley-Law-School.webp 1200w,https:\/\/sou.edu\/academics\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2025\/05\/Allie-Sipe-graduating-Berkeley-Law-School-300x169.webp 300w,https:\/\/sou.edu\/academics\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2025\/05\/Allie-Sipe-graduating-Berkeley-Law-School-1030x579.webp 1030w,https:\/\/sou.edu\/academics\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2025\/05\/Allie-Sipe-graduating-Berkeley-Law-School-768x432.webp 768w,https:\/\/sou.edu\/academics\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2025\/05\/Allie-Sipe-graduating-Berkeley-Law-School-705x397.webp 705w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" type=\"image\/webp\"><img src=\"https:\/\/sou.edu\/academics\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2025\/05\/Allie-Sipe-graduating-Berkeley-Law-School.jpg\" height=\"675\" width=\"1200\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sou.edu\/academics\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2025\/05\/Allie-Sipe-graduating-Berkeley-Law-School.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/sou.edu\/academics\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2025\/05\/Allie-Sipe-graduating-Berkeley-Law-School-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/sou.edu\/academics\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2025\/05\/Allie-Sipe-graduating-Berkeley-Law-School-1030x579.jpg 1030w, https:\/\/sou.edu\/academics\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2025\/05\/Allie-Sipe-graduating-Berkeley-Law-School-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/sou.edu\/academics\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2025\/05\/Allie-Sipe-graduating-Berkeley-Law-School-705x397.jpg 705w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" class=\"wp-image-100755 avia-img-lazy-loading-not-100755 avia_image  sp-no-webp\" alt=\"Allie Sipe graduating Berkeley Law School\" decoding=\"async\" fetchpriority=\"high\" itemprop=\"thumbnailUrl\"  > <\/picture><\/div><\/div><\/div><br \/>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-mazw61oy-76a959fa0a87910bbc04031d9e76e113\">\n#top .av_textblock_section.av-mazw61oy-76a959fa0a87910bbc04031d9e76e113 .avia_textblock{\nfont-size:12px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<section  class='av_textblock_section av-mazw61oy-76a959fa0a87910bbc04031d9e76e113 '   itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/BlogPosting\" itemprop=\"blogPost\" ><div class='avia_textblock'  itemprop=\"text\" ><p><em>Pictured Above: Allie Sipe graduating Berkeley Law School.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><br \/>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-mazvpubc-307f53d23c5db7aac599f34c2c318197\">\n#top .av_textblock_section.av-mazvpubc-307f53d23c5db7aac599f34c2c318197 .avia_textblock{\nfont-size:15px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<section  class='av_textblock_section av-mazvpubc-307f53d23c5db7aac599f34c2c318197 '   itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/BlogPosting\" itemprop=\"blogPost\" ><div class='avia_textblock'  itemprop=\"text\" ><p>As a housing attorney, Allie provides free civil legal services to low-income families, and defends tenants in eviction cases.
