Adventures after Big Law

Class Notes
Class of 2002
Posted on December 23, 2022

After a career as a professor and journalist in New York, I graduated from Georgetown Law in 2021 and joined the finance group of a BigLaw law firm in Boston. I left the firm this summer to work on my longheld dream of self publishing my short stories and poem series (2 of the books are currently part of Boyden Library’s New Books display). I also founded a publishing company, nitelite publications, to hold the copyrights to the books. Lately, I have been shopping one of the short story books around to different female- and POC- owned production studios in Hollywood. It would make a great TV series! Now, I’m back on the job market in DC, looking to do more value-aligned legal and policy work for the federal government.
