Library Gallery. “From the Classroom to the Courtroom: 2018 UMBC English Alumna Breia Lassiter Tells Her Story.” Breia Lassiter (Juris Doctor, Michigan State University), Associate Attorney in the Employment Law practice group of Dinsmore & Shohl, a law firm in Cincinnati, Ohio, will discuss her personal history from her days as an English major at UMBC, through law school and work as a student clinician at Michigan State University, to taking the bar exam, passing it, and finally now working as an Associate Attorney at a law firm. This talk will be of interest to all Alumni, and to Pre Law, English, and other CAHSS majors, in particular, who are considering career paths in public service.
