What conferences, books, blogs, podcasts, or influencers would you recommend to women?
CREWNY is a fantastic CRE organization and I would highly recommend anyone in the industry who is not a member to join. For construction attorneys, the ABA Forum on Construction Law is a fantastic organization to learn about the trade and to network with other women in our field.

My current job as a partner and a construction litigator at Zetlin & De Chiara is by far my favorite job! I undoubtedly learn something new every day, but the most important lesson I have learned is that hard work and integrity in the practice of law is critical to success.
