What inspired you to be a lawyer and how that has impacted you?
​
This is a tough one, I guess I would say curiosity for Arts, reading, and the beauty of the profession.
The impact is that I became more curious and more boring (kidding) but I would say the ability to see things differently and be flexible in certain areas.
How do we create more inclusion for women in law and society?
​
Teach women and girls to always put themselves first, preparing them for the stark reality that they may have to work 2 times or harder to prove that they are qualified to sit at the table, more mentorship opportunities, and building a sustainable structure that includes women in law and societal activities.
Finally, be a risk taker and invest in yourself.
