I am a first year associate at Ropes and Gray. I am currently dividing my time between the Litigation Department and the Labor and Employment Department. I grew up in Providence, RI and I am native New Englander. After college, lived abroad in Madrid, Spain, and I also pursued a career in graduate admissions and earned a Masters in Education.
Although I am new associate, the Attorneys of Color Group and the Ropes and Gray attorneys involved with the Group have already been a significant part of my experience at the firm. During fall recruiting, I had numerous opportunities to meet with the AOC partners and associates. As a summer associate, I participated in the AOC's Full Circle Mentoring program which allowed me to interact with Ropes and Gray attorneys who are at different stages in their careers. Each member of my mentoring group was extremely interested to hear about my summer experiences and all offered encouragement and advice regarding my third year of law school. Now, as first year associate, AOC attorneys continue to show their interest and concern about my professional development. My relationships with various AOC members ensures that there is always someone to talk to about every aspect of my development at the firm.
