# Sal DeFrancesco Resident Tutor Law, Fellowships ![Sal headshot](/sites/g/files/omnuum5006/files/styles/hwp_4_5__480x600/public/lowell/files/img_2497.jpg?itok=7hqzntiE) email Hi Lowell! I’m a second-year resident tutor and third-year law student at HLS. Most importantly, I’m a proud Lowell House alum. I grew up in Scranton, PA and graduated from Harvard College in 2019 with a concentration in Social Studies, specializing in critical theory, intellectual history, and ethics. After graduation, I spent several years working in Democratic politics on the 2020 presidential campaign before transitioning into the Biden-Harris Administration as a speechwriter and policy advisor. As a wannabe public defender, I spend the bulk of my time these days working on indigent defense and prisoners’ rights cases across Massachusetts. In my free time, you can find me skiing, hiking, playing new board games, or watching baseball. I'm always free if you ever want to talk about campaigns, public policy, law school, anti-carceral movements, student life, or anything else! - ## Interests [Board Games](/interests/board-games) [Outdoor Activities](/interests/outdoor-activities) [Fellowships](/interests/fellowships) [Law](/interests/law) - ## Role [Senior Common Room](/role/senior-common-room) [Resident Tutors](/role/resident-tutors)
