My name is Bailey and once upon a time (or actually, August of 2016) I pulled an Elle Woods (from Legally Blonde, if you didn't know) and decided I was going to go to law school. To be honest, I thought I was going to be a badass. Turns out, as soon as I got to school, I actually just cried a lot dyed my hair brown in a moment of panic. After a rough adjustment period, I still managed to enjoy school, get excellent grades, find a worthwhile internship, and blog a little bit about it along the way. Turns out, blogging in law school was one of my favorite activities. I graduated with my Juris Doctor in 2019, and passed the bar exam the following July. My first two years as a lawyer I spent working as a judicial clerk at the state appellate level. In August of 2021, I transitioned into private practice at a small firm, working primarily on transactional matters. After about two years in private practice, I left the firm I was working at to focus on the energy industry and now work as an attorney for a non-profit specializing in power and natural gas contracts.
If you're wondering about me personally, when I started this blog, my primary identity was "law student" and never knew much else aside from being a student with big ambitions.Since leaving law school, aside from focusing on my career, I got married, bought a house, picked up a few pets along the way, and welcomed two daughters. Today, I am a wife, a mother, a homeowner, an animal lover, a lawyer, and so much more.

As my life has evolved, I've often struggled to figure out where to take this blog that I started to share my law school journey. However, I am excited to see where the future takes me and my content, and I am so appreciative for everyone who chooses to follow along!
