Atlanta’s John Marshall Law School has announced the members of its 2025–2026 Student Ambassador Team. The ambassadors are chosen to represent the law school and connect prospective students, current students, faculty, and staff.
The student ambassador program at AJMLS has been in place for over 15 years. Ambassadors work with the Office of Admissions and share their experiences with those interested in attending the school. Their role includes improving the quality of the law school through professionalism and service.
Members of this year’s team come from a range of backgrounds and institutions. They include Maleigh Arnold (Valdosta State University), Kyle Cobb (Morehouse College), Michael Cress (Valdosta State University), Diamond Daniels (University of Georgia), Melissa Harris (Longwood University), Collin Hasty (Kennesaw State University), Jaelin Montgomery (Spring Hill College), Deeandra Patterson (Tennessee State University/University of West GA), Aliyah Perez (Lourdes University), Aaron Edward Ridenour (University of Central Florida), Anna Stone (Piedmont University/The University of Georgia), and Assy Sy (SUNY Oswego). Additional ambassadors are Kendice Armstrong, Austin Cauffman, Morgan Diaz, Jada DuClair, Jayla Hill, Jayseana Jackson, Anjali Patel, Yakira Sadler, and Laina Sansom.
Ambassadors shared what they appreciate about AJMLS. Maleigh Arnold said, “I love the community here! We are all family and it’s illustrated by our students + faculty alike!” Kyle Cobb stated his appreciation for “Community, Faculty and Limitless Possibilities Regardless of Your Origin Story.” Michael Cress noted that “the close-knit, supportive environment” stands out at AJMLS. Diamond Daniels highlighted diversity: “I love how diverse our students are, as well as the staff!”
Students also discussed their favorite places in Atlanta—ranging from Ponce City Market to High Museum to Beltline—and their intended areas of legal practice such as juvenile law, civil rights law, family law, criminal defense, business law, patent law or environmental law.
The announcement encourages support for these ambassadors as they take on their roles during the upcoming academic year.
