Work-Life Balance in the Legal Field: A Panel Discussion

The Wellness Committee cordially invites you to attend the next installment of a series titled, “So You Want To Be A _____ Lawyer.” The series, launched by our beloved Professor Doug Colbert, is designed to bring in lawyers in various specialized areas of practice, which translates to inviting criminal defense and civil lawyers ranging from personal injury to corporate, securities, business and estates law. They intend to share with you the wellness challenges they faced in law school and as practitioners. Some will focus on the personal and managing the work-life balance, including the responsibilities of parenting.

The panel on November 4 is composed of recent alums who are juggling demanding work schedules while addressing a variety of wellness challenges. This panel is co-sponsored by the Business Law Program. Lunch will be provided for those who RSVP.

Below are the panelists for the November 4 session:

Kathryn Baxter, Class of 2023, Law Clerk, U.S. District Court for the District of Maryland

Sammy Jo Kanekuni, Class of 2023, Law Clerk, U.S. District Court for the District of Maryland
