Q: What is your favorite inspirational quote?
A: My favorite quote is from “The Power of Persistence” by Calvin Coolidge: “Nothing in this world can take the place of persistence. Talent will not; nothing is more common than unsuccessful men with talent. Genius will not; unrewarded genius is almost a proverb. Education will not; the world is full of educated derelicts. Persistence and determination alone are omnipotent. The slogan ‘Press On!’ has solved and always will solve the problems of the human race.”

Q: If stranded on a desert island, what books, music, and films would you take with you?
A: You’d find me reading Homer’s “Iliad” and “Odyssey,” and “Man’s Search for Meaning” by Viktor Frankl. I’d be listening to “Purgatory” by Tyler Childers, and I’d be watching “Dead Poets Society,” “Interstellar,” and “Good Will Hunting.”

Q: What is something you’ve learned while with BG and what kind of law are you currently most interested in?
A: On reflecting on my journey here at BG, I’ve gained a wealth of knowledge about the law, legal writing, our legal system, and what it takes to be an exceptional litigator. Right now I’m very interested in pursuing class action/mass tort and product liability law, as well as appellate litigation.

Cameron, thank you so much for joining us this summer and for becoming part of our Bailey Glasser community.
