She wrote an article for the ACC Docket entitled "8 Keys to Become a Valuable and Trusted Resource to the C-suite." Liz is Corporate Counsel II at Konica Minolta Business Solutions U.S.A., Inc.

The award-winning ACC Docket is the journal of the Association of Corporate Counsel (ACC) and the premier publication for in-house counsel. Each issue delivers timely news and practical advice one can apply to his or her daily practice. The ACC Docket has a circulation of more than 40,000 readers worldwide, including ACC members, corporate counsel who practice in law firms, and law students.
 
With her first published article, Liz reflected on the English courses and memorable teachers she had at IHA, including the late Ms. Marilyn Rich. "I've, of course, been thinking of Ms. Rich," she said. "After feeling the initial thrill of being officially published, I became immensely sad thinking about how proud of me I hope Ms. Rich is. I really want to tell her all about this."

"My career and this latest exciting development would not have happened without everything I learned and experienced at IHA," Liz reflected. "You IHA educators, administration, and staff are something else! I will never be able to thank you for all you do! What a special profession (calling, really). Eternal thanks."

Liz began working as a staff attorney at Konica Minolta Business Solutions U.S.A., Inc. in 2012. Two years later, she was promoted two levels to Corporate Counsel I and, last year, she was promoted to Corporate Counsel II.

Liz said she is very appreciative of the opportunity Konica Minolta has given her to learn and grow as a professional business attorney. She credits much of her success to the incredible education, both inside the classroom and out, that IHA provided her. Liz also joined the Immaculate Heart Academy Consultative Board in 2016. “I am so thankful,” she said, “for the opportunity to attempt to give back to the school that gave me so much.”
