A lifelong Midwesterner, Beth began her professional career in the general corporate practice group at Vorys Sater Seymour and Pease.

Energized by finding creative solutions to students' job acquisition challenges, Beth loves encouraging students to take charge of their careers. She knows that there is space in the practice of law for different personalities, interests, temperaments, and goals. The exciting part of her job is helping each student find the right starting point and begin building their own path.
