Favorite quote: ”First impressions last”. First impressions aren’t about perfection, they’re about presence. Clients remember who made them feel heard, coworkers remember who had their back. So I show real, respectful, good energy, and that ‘I got you’ vibe.

At DDT: I’m a PI paralegal at DDT and the first one who built things out with the rest of the PI team. I helped set up everything from SOPs to training guides, built workflows from scratch, and now I train future staff too. On top of that, I assist clients from day one to settlements. Answering their questions, guiding them through the process, and making sure they feel seen, heard, and taken care of.

Credentials: I started off as a call center associate — basically got a PhD in people skills and multitasking. Then I pivoted into law, became a legal assistant, and never looked back. Been in that role for 3+ years now, handling real cases, real deadlines, and real chaos like a pro.

Top 3 picks: How to get away with murder, It’s Okay Not to Be Okay & The Silent Patient Novel by Alex Michaelides

Outside of work: Reading, mostly mystery/thriller novels and video games!

Beatles or Stones: Honestly… idk, I'm a gen z who knows blackpink and twice (unfortunate right? :/)

If not this…: BROKE. But you’d catch me walking like I just closed a million-dollar case. Delulu, but she gets results.

Favorite untranslatable word: ”puhon” — ‘Puhon.’ It’s like saying ‘hopefully’ but with peace and divine timing. It reminds me to work hard but stay patient. Everything comes along in its perfect time.

Superpower: Reading minds, 100%. Imagine never second-guessing a client’s mood or knowing exactly what the attorney really needs. I'd save lives and time — no miscommunication. Basically Professor X.

Hidden talent: I can eat like a full buffet and still stay 42kg… fast metabolism supremacy? Not sure if it’s a talent or a built-in cheat code, but people are always shook.

Happy hour order: Easy — Amaretto Sour. Sweet, a little sassy, and dangerously smooth… just like me after closing a tough case.

Best skills: Tight deadlines just unlock my ultra-instinct mode. So I eat pressure for breakfast with my iced coffee, to stay calm and go full spreadsheet warrior.

Favorite travel: Definitely the beach — any beach. If there’s sand, sun, and WiFi for a lil work-from-shore moment, I’m thriving.

Pets: Yes, Dogs! — Effy & Elly

Career advice: Don’t wait to ‘feel ready’ — just start. Just give it a shot. Apply for the job, ask the question, take the L and learn from it. Being clueless is part of the glow-up. Also? Be the person who follows up. 90% of success is showing up and sending that ‘just checking in’ email. ROMANTICIZE your grind. Even if you’re stapling papers and chasing signatures, do it like you’re the boss.

Key to success: I stay hungry to learn, never too cool to double-check, and I treat every case like it’s top priority.
