Monette attended Dillard University where she received her Bachelor’s degree in Sociology/Criminal Justice in May 2013, and attended Southern University Law Center where she received her Juris Doctor degree in May 2019. She was inspired to become an attorney by her father when she was a teenager. However, when her oldest sister was murdered in New Orleans in 2011 as a result of domestic violence, her desire for the legal profession increased. With this travesty, Monette’s continuous aspiration is to be a change in Louisiana and provide a space
where people can rely and believe that they won’t be failed by the justice system.
