Prior to joining Brown, Dean Fisher served as Associate Professor of Biological Sciences and Director of the Master’s in Biomedical Science program at the University of Northern Colorado. Her early research focused on the physiology of aquatic organisms, but she moved to research in the area of bioeducation where she examined the impact of course-based undergraduate research experiences on students’ attitudes, science identity, and sense of belonging. In addition to her teaching and research, she has been advising students at both the graduate and undergraduate level for more than 20 years. She was responsible for the creation and implementation of the Master’s in Biomedical Science degree program at the University of Northern Colorado and served as its director since its inception. In this role, she has helped to guide students as they complete their journey to a career in healthcare. Dean Fisher earned her B.A. in Biology and B.S. in Environmental Health from the Indiana University of Pennsylvania and her M.S. in Biology and Ph.D. in Biology with a specialization in Aquatic Physiological Ecology from Wake Forest University. 

My name is Rachel Lee, and I am a pre-law senior at Brown concentrating in socio-cultural anthropology and on track for the Engaged Scholarship Certificate. I am from Los Angeles, California, and a fun fact is that I have 3 cats and a dog (so I love talking about pets)! Going into college, I already had an interest in pursuing law, but gaining practical experience through internships has helped solidify that career path.

My first internship was the summer after freshman year, where I was a JusticeCorps Legal Access Intern at the Pasadena Courthouse in Los Angeles. There, I assisted a diverse body of self-represented litigants navigate the legal systems. This experience grew my interest in public interest law, leading me to further internships at legal nonprofits. In my sophomore spring semester, I was a client intake intern at the Alliance for Children’s Rights and the Rhode Island Center For Justice. I was also an administrative intern in Summer 2025 at Asian Americans Advancing Justice Southern California (AJSOCAL), and I returned in Summer 2026 as a Citizenship Project intern. At AJSOCAL, I learned more about immigration law and working with the AAPI communities in Los Angeles.

On campus, I have also been involved in research, fellowships, and student organizations. Through UTRA funding, I created an independent research project with the anthropology department. I also received the Arthur Liman Public Interest Fellowship, which provided not only funding for my legal non-profit internship over the summer but also an opportunity to attend their colloquium at Yale Law School. I have also been a Community-Based Research and Learning fellow, where I supported faculty with their course and connected them with Providence community organizations. I am also the co-president of Brown’s chapter of the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) where I can grow my interest in advocacy and politics.

If any of these experiences sounded of interest to you or if you are just generally interested in law/law school, I would love to share more and get to know about your interests!
