What are some of your proudest recent achievements? My greatest source of pride about last year is that in a year of tremendous market, political and COVID-related challenges, our lawyers and staff stuck to our strategy and values and proved that you can have terrific financial success—including joining the billion-dollar club—without trading off things like culture, diversity, collaboration and kindness.

Name a lawyer or mentor whose leadership inspired you. I consider myself fortunate to have been mentored by two brilliant luminaries of the legal profession: Davis Polk’s Bob Fiske, former U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of New York, and late O’Melveny partner and former U.S. Assistant Attorney General Walter Dellinger. Both Bob and Walter were among the top, most versatile lawyers of their generation, and they showed me that the best and most successful leaders approach their work with a servant’s heart—putting humility, compassion and empathy above all else, seeking justice and striving to make the world a better place.
