ABOUT SHANNON KALLIN

Entered law to become part of the solution to the issues facing our nation. That may be in a corporation doing transactional law while striving to make the environment a fair and safe place for everyone or in a courtroom advocating for justice. Future field placements will provide the answer. Research, negotiation, and deal-making are essentially what UX professionals do thus the move into law has not been a big stretch. Same skill set, different topics. People are still people, therefore, the psychology background and 20 years spent observing, listening, and learning have been valuable assets.
