This episode features a discussion with Marcella Jayne. Marcella is a litigation associate in Foley’s New York office. Marcella shares her long and winding journey to law school and to Foley, essentially a journey in which she was able to pull herself, and her family, out of poverty. Marcella shares about dropping out of high school, getting her GED, and setting her sights on law school while in community college. Marcella reflects on how incredibly difficult it was for her to get to Fordham Law School, but how she was able to not only get to law school but excel as a single mother of two young children.
