Juan Dawson is a junior associate at a newly merged megafirm. He’s one of the firm’s many energy industry lawyers – or, as he puts it, a "lawyer for electrons." In this episode, Juan shares how he pivoted to a niche, multi-faceted field involving regulatory compliance and interaction with government agencies. Juan discusses how he reconciles his initial public interest aspirations with a corporate environment. He also touches on collaboration with scientists and engineers, on-campus interviewing, and adjusting to the workload and culture of a large law firm. Despite a steep learning curve, Juan hopes the constructive criticism he receives and his effort to learn will soon help him do more client-facing work and expand his involvement in impactful projects. Juan is a graduate of Villanova University Charles Widger School of Law.

This episode is hosted by Katya Valasek.
