Quote
“My work as a volunteer faculty member is given back to the organization in honor of all those who came before me, every NITA faculty member, and participant who’s mentored me professionally, and everyone in the NITA family who’s offered to spent their time and their expertise to bring up the next generation of lawyer leaders.” Whitney Untiedt
