Mallory offered advice for aspiring young professionals who seek to reach a Partner position:
“You’re going to have good days and you’re going to have bad days. When you think about your goals and your career, try to think about the long term. It’s easy to get discouraged on the bad days but try to stay focused on where you want to be in the long run and what you can do to get there. Stay focused, work hard, and take initiative. Don’t be afraid to ask questions and always stay true to your values.”
