Kurt “KJ” Russell Jr., Juris Doctor and Master of Sports, Law and Business
KJ graduated ASU Law with concurrent JD and MSLB degrees, putting those sports dreams of his youth to use in the legal field.
“During my time at ASU Law, one of the most profound lessons I learned was the paramount importance of relationships with classmates, mentors and sponsors. While I anticipated the academic rigor and legal knowledge gained in the classroom, what truly surprised me was the transformative impact of forging meaningful connections with my peers and mentors. I realized that these relationships with my fellow students weren’t just about studying together; they were about cultivating a network of future colleagues and industry mates.”
