Goulston & Storrs, an Am Law 200 firm, is pleased to announce that Rumi Tran has been selected for the Leadership Council on Legal Diversity (LCLD) 2024 Pathfinder program, which identifies, connects, and trains high-performing, early-career attorneys from diverse backgrounds on foundational leadership and relationship-building skills.
“We are excited that Rumi has been chosen for this important opportunity. She embodies the qualities we look for in our future leaders, and this Pathfinder program will help her continue to hone her legal, business, and management skills,” said Bill Dillon, Co-Managing Director of Goulston & Storrs. “We look forward to her continued contributions to our firm as she advances in her career.”
Tran is an associate in the firm’s Corporate Group in New York, where she focuses her practice on mergers and acquisitions, debt and equity financings, corporate governance, and compliance. She received her J.D. from New York University School of Law and her B.S. in Finance & Economics from New York University Stern School of Business.
The Pathfinder program was conceived as a supplement to training initiatives already in place at LCLD Member corporations and law firms. It provides participants with practical tools for developing and leveraging internal professional networks, leadership skills, and career development strategies. In addition to full class programming, participants are placed in small groups led by a Program Facilitator who serves as a mentor to help each Pathfinder connect what they learn to the organization at which they work.
