In this episode, I chat with Claudia Danies, a corporate paralegal who has succeeded in all different kinds of work environments. Claudia s holds a B.A. from Binghamton University and has been in the legal field for over twenty years.  She is a self-described Bohemian and began her professional career in fashion.  Claudia then decided to pivot industries, received her paralegal certificate from NYU, and landed her first legal job at Smith Barney in 1997.  We discuss her love of culture, random encounters with taxi cab drivers keeping an open mind, speaking up for yourself, and getting what you deserve out of your profession.
