HLS Alumni in Residence Program

I found my talk with Gwen incredibly enlightening, as someone pursuing a career at Steptoe. Hearing not only how she overcame obstacles in her career as well as her leadership philosophy was inspiring. Overall, a wonderful experience!

The Alumni in Residence program allows students to engage one‑on‑one with accomplished alumni who have pursued varied careers after law school. The conversations that the program facilitates offer students an unparalleled learning and professional development opportunity.

Participating in the Alumni in Residence program was one of the highlights of my time at HLS. I found it incredibly valuable to connect with distinguished alumni with backgrounds spanning government, private legal practice, entertainment, and finance, to name a few. As a first‑generation law student, I am particularly thankful for the opportunity to learn from these folks who kindly took the time to share advice from their rich personal and professional experiences.

The Alumni in Residence program has been one of the most valuable networking opportunities afforded to me during my time at HLS. The program connects us to the most accomplished and diverse set of professionals from the legal world and beyond. The alumni not only answer your questions about their expertise but also provide advice to you based on your personal background and career goals. I am very grateful for the alumni and the AIR team!
