ABOUT ME
After a lot of years, a few things have come clear to me. First, law is at the core of our culture’s
success – but how we deliver legal services needs a lot of work, and so do law firms. Second,
education, particularly liberal arts education, is as important as law – and how we deliver
education needs just as much work. Third, North Carolina, and its towns such as Greensboro,
Raleigh and Wilmington, are about the finest places in the world, and they need well-educated
lawyers to lead and make them best.
