Natalie Gallego
Religious Studies, BA
2018
When Natalie first visited the Western Wall in Israel on an interfaith pilgrimage, she witnessed how deeply Judaism impacted the lives of its practitioners. She thought about the influence of religion on major world affairs as well as everyday life, and realized how little she knew about many other faith practices. She decided that studying religion would help her to understand different belief systems and how they motivate people. Natalie received her BA in Religious Studies in 2018 and went on graduate from the Northeastern University School of Law in 2021.

“I have always wanted to pursue a career in law but did not want to sacrifice my interest in religious studies to do so. Northeastern’s Juris Doctor 3+3 program allowed me to develop my writing and argumentative skills while taking classes that I am passionate about.”
