Previously, Katy was the Recruiting Director at Kirkland & Ellis in Chicago. Working closely with hiring partners and recruiting committees, she hired hundreds of new associates, lateral attorneys and partners, helping them integrate and acclimate to the firm. Katy’s understanding of how strategic personnel decisions are made allows her to add significant value when helping candidates navigate the hiring process. 

As a recruiter, Katy is able to leverage her deep understanding of the legal industry with her genuine interest in professional development and counseling. She is a trusted advocate for her candidates and clients and thoroughly understands the needs of all constituents to ensure the best possible fit.
