Imani Maatuka, Esq., 24-year-old GenZer, is the youngest attorney working at her firm, Sidley Austin LLP Dallas, a prestigious corporate ‘Big Law’ firm with national offices. Sidley is the law firm that former First Lady Michelle and Barack Obama met at. Working in the legal field where minorities represent less than 5%, Imani has created a nonprofit organization and scholarship program (The Bridging the Gap Scholarship) to advocate and assist more minorities to get into Big Law careers. 

The Bridging the Gap Scholarship is sponsored by four minority law students seeking to ‘bridge the gap’ between minorities and corporate ‘big law.’ In a field where most scholarships reward those interested in seeking public-interest law careers, this scholarship presents a unique approach to social change by seeking to encourage upward social mobility for minorities and access to resources to pay it forward.
