First Job: “After graduating from Wellesley College, I worked at a pension fund advisor and fell in love with investment banking and acquisitions. When I entered law school, I already knew I wanted to practice corporate law.” Conundrum: “Reconciling the work that I do and love to do with my opinions about structures and systems that perpetuate socio-economic and racial inequity.” Favorite Color: “Black, although living in Charleston now, I find myself wearing Nantucket Red.” Describe Yourself in One Word: “Fierce.” Early Influence: “My mom—she’s also fierce.”
