Jessica Farnsworth

Jessica Farnsworth is second-year BYU Law student from Provo, Utah.  She graduated from BYU with a degree in Middle East Studies/Arabic.  Before graduating she served a mission for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in Thailand and studied abroad in Amman, Jordan. She loves learning about people through studying languages, politics, and religions, and traveling around the world. She is interested in human rights and comparative law. Working as a Student Fellow for the International Center for Law and Religion Studies, and completing an internship in Hong Kong during summer 2016 was a dream come true for her as she was able to return to Asia and research religious freedom issues. She was a member of the Master Schedule Team of the Symposium 2016 Student Executive Committee and was Chair of Master Schedule for 2017. She served on the 2016-2017 Student Management Board and has been re-appointed for 2017-2018.
