Good marketing and branding comes down to figuring out how to stay top of mind. How can you make people think of you when a subject comes up? What subject do you want to evoke people's memory of you? What kind of memory do you want people to have of you? Achieving the above comes down to STORYTELLING - how are you telling your story? If you can weave your life experiences, your values, your goa...

Full transparency: I meant to post this FIRST for my build a brand section (lol 😂) but here we are. So if you're into chronological posting, watch this first and then PART ONE. But really, it won't matter either way since both really touch on my beliefs when it comes to marketing yourself for new opportunities & growth. Yes there is a time and a place for doing activities or exercises to hone i...

Here is my journey to leveraging "my brand" to meet hundreds of new people, find 2 internships during law school & land my dream job right out of law school (working as an IP & branding protection associate). There's a lot of helpful information out there on this subject for someone who is JUST beginning - sometimes that information is WRONG or OVERCOMPLICATED. So here's my take on what persona...

I can't say it enough: network build your personal brand. Networking is just a fancy word for getting to know people and being curious. That's it. And if you don't believe that, then you need to watch this video. Because it was through networking that I saved myself from prolonged unemployment multiple times.

Back with another video recounting my time on law review during law school. It's an experience I'm still proud of today BUT there were definitely some: - learned lessons 📚 - big obstacles 🏆 - advice ❤️ I'd give to those considering it now! Remember: this is anecdotal. Take everything that works for you & leave the rest. While you're at it: leave a comment if you have any questions you'd like to...

As a former law student, I always appreciated it when people would share their experiences: with law school, classes, internships etc. The bar exam was no different. I want to return the favor and share my experience here in case it can help some future attorneys! You can expect the following discussion: 📚 being required to take a bar prep class in 3L 📚 picking out a bar prep program 📚 building...

Here's me reflecting on my third & final year of law school (which, yes, was over a year ago and I honestly can't believe that). From the classes I took to the bar application to graduating, this is exactly what I would say to upcoming or current 3L students who are needing some insights (or encouragement!)

Here's my reflection on 2L year - the classes, the extracurriculars, the obstacles. Mental health is a big theme for this one simply because it was a big theme of that year. I never knew they had a term for the challenges that many 2L students face during their second year but they do! The "2L Slump" - here's how I survived mine...

This is my 1L story: learning how to play the "mind game," adapting to the new world of academia I had found myself in, and maintaining routines & practices that I knew were good for me. If you're also on the other side of your 1L year, share in the comments what helped you most during that time!

This video is not legal advice. I am not your lawyer. Please go and speak to a lawyer in your area for specific, targeted advice for your situation. Here's me rambling ever-so-slightly about whether entrepreneurs should go to IP lawyers (or more importantly, WHEN they should go). Again, every situation is different (see disclaimer above).

"It depends!" Because, it really *does* depend: on the person, the goals, the experience you're looking for. I'm not about to tell anyone straight up that they shouldn't go to law school. But I will be honest about my experience and my discernment process for deciding whether I should've gone to law school. Let me know what you think in the comments. Please feel free to share with any aspiring ...

I'm fairly certain that my mission in life has SOMETHING to do with creating more beauty in the world. And at the moment that looks like helping creators, artists, and thinkers protect their ideas and creations! As a newly minted IP & Brand Protection Associate at ESCA Legal, I'm starting my journey on learning how to do just that. Follow along as I share my love for all things IP, creativity, ...
