E.L.P.O. Officer and Board Member Highlight: we want to introduce our Secretary, Andrea Joyet. She has served in a multitude of areas at the ELPO. She also pursues some really interesting cases abroad in her travels. Beyond her own practice, she finds the time to take students from the school on ride-alongs in a teaching capacity. It is such a valuable experience for our students. We really appreciate the time she devotes to attend, contribute, and record all of our meetings. Updates coming to the website soon. We are posting her Bio below. Check it out!
