Testimonials
"Thank you for organizing the coffee talk with Betty Jamgotchian. We had a very insightful conversation about law, business, professional development and more. I would encourage more coffee talks with professionals... it's always pleasing to hear from successful people and to learn from their experiences." - Arsen Der-Aprahamian, APS Member & Mentee
"Thank you for coordinating this awesome program! It was a pleasure to meet Betty and the group at the Capital One Cafe the ideal environment to host this meeting. As I am at the start of my career, Betty answered many of my questions regarding law school, work-life balance, and different phases of her career in the field. It was helpful to learn about her journey in immigration law, as that is the area of law I aim to practice. The other mentees also shared advice on seeking employment in the current professional climate and the important of building strong connections. Overall I am very happy to have participated in this meeting and I look forward to staying in touch with each member of the group." - Aleen Mankerian, APS Member & Mentee
