Ashli shared a poignant post on the social media platform after receiving a New York State Bar letter indicating she had passed the exam.
“ASHLI LYRIC JONES, ESQ. I’m still trying to find the words to describe this feeling, but 4 year old me would be so proud to know that I passed the NY State bar exam on my 1st try. I spent 2.5 months studying in the same room that I took my bar exam in,” she wrote.
She also opened up about the challenges she faced while in law school and how she learned to affirm herself.
“Through this time, I went through many periods of doubt, fear, stress, and anxiety. I couldn’t imagine how I was going to reach the goal I worked so hard for. But I did it. I will be joining the 2% of black women that are attorneys. I’m so proud of myself. I know my friends and family are proud. Most importantly, I know my sisters are proud. Here’s to believing in myself more. Address me as Esquire now.💅🏾🤍⚖️ #ipassedthebar #blackwomanattorney””
