Los Angeles Trial Lawyers' Charities (LATLC) is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit whose purpose is to make a positive difference in the quality of life for people within the greater Los Angeles Area, focusing on issues related to education, children, survivors of abuse, persons with disabilities, and homelessness, by providing financial assistance and volunteer service to groups in need. As Director of Operations, I helped prepare and run major fundraising events (annual gala, golf tournament, basketball tournament, holiday event, and more) and monthly community service projects, managed our social media accounts, and provided general administrative support. I still volunteer with LATLC, and am passionate about their mission not only because it empowers and makes a positive difference in the quality of life for many people, but also because the service projects allow me to personally connect with my local community and continually humble me to do more.
