Stephen Badea

Background

About Stephen Badea

Stephen plans to attend law school at the Elisabeth Haub School of Law at Pace University in the Fall of 2025, and hopes to concentrate in the field of environmental law while working towards his Juris Doctor, participating in clinical, clerkship, or externship experiences in the process and learning valuable lessons from them. His interests include policy related to the environment, climate change, and sustainable infrastructure; the various nuances of the legal field, both domestically and internationally; equity in medical and educational access; diplomacy; geopolitical affairs in Eastern Europe and the Middle East; and the exchange of languages and cultures. Stephen aspires to use his experience in political campaigns, the legal field, and other civic organizations as a catalyst for effecting change on an international level by consulting for the federal government and/or a supranational organization like the UN on salient climate issues, litigating in the climate change law/policy sector, or by working for an IGO dedicated to environmental issues in a political or legal capacity. Stephen currently holds a Bachelor of Arts in Political Science and Linguistics, with a minor in East-Central European Studies, from the University of Florida.
