My Favorite Quote:
“Be the change you wish to see in the world.” Gandhi
This quote is a perfect reminder to me to be apart of the solution to a problem and not just to complain about it.
Favorite Sports Team:
Whichever one is winning, or I have money on. But if I had to pick one probably the Blackhawks.
Favorite Vacation Destination:
I typically like to try to go to MI beaches a few times in the summer, specifically the Warren Dunes and St. Joseph.
Favorite Book:
Game of Thrones series and a Long Way Gone. I don’t like talking about the Game of Thrones books though. I believe in reading the last book by the author before getting ahead with the HBO show! I’m currently hiding from reading Facebook posts related to the show.
Favorite Thing to do in Chicago:
I love trying out new restaurants and walking around when it isn’t too cold out. Qing Xian Yuan Dumplings in Chinatown for lunch and Howl at the Moon for my night out are my current go to favorites.
Favorite Influence:
I have always loved positive social movements so naturally MLK Jr. and Gandhi are people I admire.
Favorite Food:
Various versions of Veggie sandwiches, salads and tomato soup are my go-to favorites.
Biggest Accomplishments:
Before having my son I probably would have given a more interesting list. Seeing my son get above average math scores and getting new taekwondo belts during promotion tests are my proud accomplishments now.
Why I Work Here:
I started with the firm within the first year of its opening. This firm has provided me with a unique opportunity to help enhance our company culture, policies, and legal production services. It has been continually rewarding to watch our business flourish and our list of clients with happy endings continue to grow.
Being “non-traditional” myself with how my young son is being raised, I can easily relate to many of our clients going through a family transition. I enjoy watching our clients get to that better place in their lives, and it is equally as important to me to make sure our clients receive a valuable experience working with our team. I like ensuring that our legal production is backed up with the right Tribe members, with efficient procedures, and the type of clients that our team strives to get positive results for.
What I Love Most About my Job:
Our culture here is pretty awesome. We have a great support system both internally between staff and with our clients. Each team member brings their own unique, and valuable outlook to the table on how to contribute to the firm and how to help our clients.
