Getting to know your consultant

Getting to know Kevin Sinnott

Managing Director of Sonder Consultants

Speaking and engaging with so many different personalities and opinions.

4\. Best piece of advice to give to lawyers looking for a job?

Back yourself!

I got engaged in New York, so I would have to go with that!

My mum!

Lone Survivor

What does a president even do these days?!
