I've been involved in the Women’s Leadership Initiative (WLI) since I started at the Firm and, within a month of joining, I was designated a co-chair of the WLI’s networking subcommittee and was in that role for five years. Part of the WLI’s mission involves mentoring. My role as co-chair of the networking subcommittee involved fostering connections generally, not just among women but among everybody at the Firm.
Beyond the WLI, I enjoy mentoring junior associates, both informally and formally — I currently have three first-year associate mentees through the formal mentorship program and the last few summers I served as a mentor to summer associates as well.
