In this episode, Ann is interviewed by paralegal student Kristy Medo. This was a class assignment for Kristy to interview someone and then present the interview to her class. Instead of just choosing to do a phone interview and use PowerPoint slides for her presentation to the class, Kristy reached out to Ann to see if she could take a step further!

This is our first ever flipped interview style in which Ann is the person being interviewed on the podcast.

Key Takeaways:
  • Ann initially pursued a college degree, thinking she would go to law school but fell in love with being a paralegal and decided to pursue it as a career.
  • Finding balance is one of the most challenging aspects of operating the Paralegal Bootcamp, as it can be easy to get wrapped up in projects and work long hours.
  • Paralegals have a wide range of alternative career options, including legal compliance, data security, corporate positions, and healthcare compliance.
  • Learning to use AI tools and technology is crucial for paralegals to stay relevant and valuable in the industry, as it can enhance efficiency and productivity.
