AUSTIN SO – CATALYST SPOTLIGHT
AUSTIN SO – CATALYST SPOTLIGHT
Our very own In-Hounse Counsel Committee Co-Chair Austin So has been profiled by the Council of Urban Professionals in their Catalyst Spotlight. Austin’s commitment to diversity and inclusion has made us all proud. You can read more about what Austin has to say by clicking the link in the title.
Among other things, he shares his practical advice for young people who want their careers to make an impact:
Network constantly in all directions – up, down, sideways, in and out. And find a way to help someone else in some small way, every day.
Austin also shared that same advice when recently spoke at AABANY’s Getting-on-Track: Networking for Lawyers panel. To read more of Austin’s candid advice, check out the highlight for that event here.
