Responsible for the management, leadership and development of the legal recruiting and office services staff, I provide oversight, research, sourcing, interviewing, assimilation and coordination of law student and lateral attorney recruitment efforts. Communication and coordination is critical to my success, as is identifying recruitment trends, ensuring our competitive edge is maintained and client goals are met. I am also responsible for lateral attorney due diligence and conflicts requirements, as well as overseeing the budget for recruitment, facilities capital expenses, infrastructure maintenance and enhancement, and project costs. I provide support for several groups within the firm, including the Associate Development and the Women's Affinity Group. In addition to legal recruiting responsibilities, I manage the day-to-day coordination of facilities needs and requirements on a firm-wide basis and act as a point of contact for the firm's mail center, copy center and Novitex.
