Exciting to see Institute for Innovation in Prosecution's policy attorney give this important training to my old office. Through trainings like this, prosecutors can learn to engage with the communities they serve with transparency and respect.

In order to be an IIP employee, you have to divert to being a Yankees fan! (FYI Harry is a die hard Red Sox fan 😂). #IIPTakesYankeeStadium

Incredibly grateful that Seeing Rape could be a part of our convening last month. It sparked a thoughtful and deeply meaningful conversation about sexual harm. Every prosecutor should explore using this program in their own community.

It has been a while but I have some personal & professional news! I moved to Nashville and started a new job at Vanderbilt Law. We’re launching a project focused on prosecution and criminal justice in the South. So grateful for the opportunity. Stay tuned for more!

Thanks to the Niskanen Center for hosting a great criminal justice summit last week! I appreciate the invite, Kerri Raissian, to discuss DV prosecutions. Sidenote, I forgot how gorgeous Newport is, what a beautiful town.
