Episode 2: Part 2 - What I Wish I Knew with Ernestina Cruz with YLD
We're back with the Young Lawyers Division interviewing a
former
YLD chair! Past chairs will share the experiences they had as a young lawyer and what insights they'd like to pass on to the new generation. The YLD was honored to chat with current State Bar President and 2011 YLD Chair, Ernestina (Tina) Cruz. Part 2 will dive into work-life balance and personal and professional growth.
If you missed Part 1, make sure to check it out under "Tools of the Trade with Young Lawyers Division: What I Wish I Knew with Ernestina Cruz".
