Most people would be incensed if their legal education led them away from the practice of law. Not I. Now I have combined my legal training, public policy passion and love of philanthropy, hence the name phiLAWthropy.

PhiLAWthropy /fə-ˈlȯ-thrə-pē/ noun: 1. the practice of law or using legal knowledge in an active effort to promote human welfare in many fields including public policy

PhiLAWthropist /fə-ˈlȯ-thrə-pist/ noun: 1. a person who uses legal knowledge and expertise to effectuate change and promote human welfare in public policy or social justice

For me phiLAWthropy in action is making sure that everyone has access to clean food, excellent education, and fair justice. What's next? I do not know yet, but I am willing to find out. When's next? Right now.
