Q:
What careers did you consider outside of law?
A:
Music and sports have always been hugely important to me. I played football in college and was in a band during law school. Although I was never going to make it as a professional athlete, I was pretty serious about playing music. However, during my final year of law school, my band mates gave me an ultimatum: music or law. And the rest, as they say, is history.
