As a lawyer, I can say without hesitation that I am not who you usually envision when you think of “lawyer” or “attorney.”
In fact, I usually get raised eyebrows when people ask what I do and I tell them, “I’m a lawyer.” There is an implicit bias associated with certain professions. I get it. I look young, I don’t subscribe to the traditional conservatism that one usually associates with lawyers or the legal professional. I am not a White male. You don’t think of me when you think “Lawyer.”
I am here to change that, not just for myself, but for people like me: people whom American society has worked for generations to relegate to the margins. My job is to bring my full self to the table, from the margins to the center.
