Intellectual Property Associate
Your session was absolutely fantastic because as a young female lawyer I felt like you were speaking directly to me and I left your session feeling empowered. Everything about your session and presentation was upbeat, light and positive even though it inspired deep and serious thought both during as well as after the session. There is really so much more positive feedback that I could give. I have and will always recommend you to any and everyone.
