Jake Willenbring

I am a law student at UMKC Law School expected to graduate in 2027 seeking legal internships.

I have experience working in fast-paced legal environments, including as a Legal Assistant in the Economic Crimes Prosecution Section at the Kansas Attorney General’s Office. There, I supported criminal prosecutors by managing filings, discovery, trial preparation, and communication with courts and defense counsel. I also served as a Program Consultant and Constituent Liaison, where I handled legislative review and high-volume constituent communications.

Additionally, I’ve held field leadership roles in political campaigns, interned for a U.S.

House

Representative, and worked as a research assistant while I was in college.

I am currently a J.D. candidate at the University of Missouri-Kansas City School of Law, where I am involved in the Law Review, Mock Trial Team, and the Criminal Law Society. I previously earned dual Bachelor of Science degrees in Political Science and Business Entrepreneurship from Kansas State University, graduating magna cum laude with multiple leadership and academic honors.
