Extract

I entered the field of human rights after practicing criminal defense law in New York City. I brought to my work a passion for justice for victims and survivors, particularly for those suffering from gender-based violence. My work as a defense lawyer made me acutely aware that suspects and defendants themselves can often be targeted for violence by agents of the state.
