Cameasha Turner has always been defined by her hunger to achieve at the highest level.

That led her from a childhood of poverty and struggle in inner-city Dallas to a standout career at UTEP, where she was an Academic All-American in 2016 and a finalist for NCAA Woman of the Year.

It let her to Notre Dame Law School, a job at a law firm and now a job as a clerk for a federal judge in East Texas.

Throughout that climb, from being one of 10 children being raised by a single mother to standing on the edge of a special future, Turner never took her eyes off her goal of becoming an attorney, of someday being a judge.
