A Legacy of Service!

A year ago, I was installed as President of this prestigious organization that I continue to be honored to serve. I am so proud of the work that we do, from our educational programs to our networking and social events, and perhaps most gratifying our scholarship program.

This past weekend we held our 2020-2021 Scholarship Benefit and Awards Presentation virtually and awarded $80,000 in scholarships to several law students.
