Hello, ciao!

Introduction
    At the time of this writing (May 2013), I am about to graduate from law school. I recently (April 2013) acquired dual Italian citizenship. I have lived in Orange County, California my whole life. I aspire to work in the public sector during my career. This might include as a U.S. military JAG, although some branches do not appear to admit dual nationals. It also might take me to Europe. Time will tell. I am open to a wide range of possibilities at this early stage in my job hunt. I speak, read, and write moderate levels of Spanish and Italian.
    Please note that at any given time this site may be a work in progress and thus not entirely polished.
 
Social Media
    I have Google+ and LinkedIn.
 
Education
Note:
    My law school was formerly known as Western State University College of Law from the time of its inception in 1966 until 2012. Many people in the area still refer to it as such or as WSU, but the administration seems to be currently phasing out that acronym in favor of WSCL.

Faith and Politics
    I am a nondenominational Christian and lean libertarian. I'm not afraid to talk about either subject.
 
Sports
    I am a huge Roger Federer fan and will always root for him until the day he retires (and then I'll root for him to make a comeback). I hope to see him win at least two more majors, hopefully another French Open and another U.S. Open, and an Olympic gold medal in singles in 2016. Also, go Ducks and Angels!

Contact Me
    The best way to reach me is via my social media profiles, listed at the top of this page. Alternatively, you can reach me directly at jeff.brockmeier@ucla.edu. Please note that this email address is just one of many personal email accounts that I maintain, and it should forward automatically to my inbox. But I cannot guarantee that it won't go to my spam folder, which I rarely check. So I'd highly recommend using social media first if possible. Thanks.
