I wanted to be a lawyer since the eighth grade.
What does “diversity” mean to you?
I think diversity means America. I think it means the fact that we are a country and always have been a country with a lot of different places and a lot of different people. It has been a place where many people have come to have a new start — as a result, a country was born.
Why is DEI important to the legal profession?
A good legal system tries hard to defend and protect people of all different kinds and all different regions. We haven’t always done a good job, and sometimes we need to do a better job. But I’m pleased today that we’re doing a much better job at representing a large group of human beings.
