44th Annual Black Entertainment and Sports Lawyers Conference was one for the books. We work hard and play hard. The panels were phenomenal. Connecting with industry titans, up and coming talent and amazing career development at it's finest. Every year I leave this sacred space ready to level up and take on the next challenge. Always easier when you are standing on the shoulders of giants. #EntertainmentLaw #BESLA #wheredealsaredone

Bravo! Excellence, elegance, expertise, and a ton of encouragement were on the agenda at the Black Entertainment & Sports Lawyers Association annual conference in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico. Congratulations to the board of directors, officers, sponsors, and the awesome team of professional event planners for a job well done. I already miss the positive energy and camaraderie the attendees created for all to share. There will be regional events throughout the year. Can’t wait: www.besla.org

I enjoy educating lawyers on the importance of taking care of their mental health as a volunteer for the NC Lawyer Assistance Program. Special thanks to the Black Entertainment & Sports Lawyers Association Board of Directors for inviting me to serve on the Ethics, Career Strategies, Wellness & Competence panel at the 44th Annual BESLA Conference this past week.

This past week I was fortunate enough and privileged to participate in the creation and success of the Black Entertainment & Sports Lawyers Association's (BESLA) 44th Annual Conference in Los Cabos, Mexico. There, I met leaders both inside and out of the entertainment industry. Everything from associates and partners to judges and attorney generals. I am forever indebted to the Board of Directors as this conference was the inception of so many genuine relationships that will span lifetimes. I am truly humbled and honored to have been presented with the BMW Ultimate Achiever Award in recognition of my achievements – a true testament to the power of passion, persistence, and purpose. This experience has provided me invaluable insights and knowledge that will certainly open doors as I canvas the entertainment space for opportunities as I begin my legal career. I’m grateful to all who have afforded me this opportunity and made sure that my name was spoken in rooms that I was not in. #success #BESLA #sports #entertainment #IP #BMW #Lawstudent
