Creating a Roadmap for a Curated Career

Adriana Paris

A curated career involves deep reflection, intentional thought, and a vastly different set of questions than we currently ask ourselves in law school about how to choose a job. It is not a happy accident or a lucky break — it's the result of deliberate actions and choices that align with one's personal values.
