What's Not Taught
Practicing law is a whole new world for many people - particularly first-gen college grads, first-gen law students, first-gen attorneys, and first-gen BigLaw attorneys. No matter your background, you haven't practiced law until you've practiced law. The journey to becoming a trusted advisor takes time, and the path to professional excellence isn't littered with signposts.
To provide some context on my background - I practiced in the Corporate and Securities group of a BigLaw firm for five years before moving to a global media and entertainment company and a growth-stage tech company. My corporate experience includes M&A (marquee, cross-border, and de-SPAC transactions), capital markets transactions, corporate governance, PubCo board and committee management, ESG, domestic and international subsidiary management, and Exchange Act filings.
Over time, I've learned that the practice of law - and crafting a career within this field - is equal parts art and science. After mentoring and speaking on panels for nearly a decade now, I'm focusing my efforts on reaching a broader audience of new attorneys who may have the same questions I had.
