About Adrienne Nash Newsom
guiding Principles
In my 20+ years as a litigator, general counsel, and nonprofit leader, my core principles have remained unchanged:
- Integrity: I am committed to upholding the highest ethical standards in every interaction, ensuring transparency and trust.
- Professionalism: Exceptional Service = Competence + Dedication.
- Service: I believe in the power of service to create positive change.
- Approachability: I do my best to be approachable, to actually listen, and to connect with those around me.
- Curiosity: Being open to new ideas and continuously learning keeps me looking forward, and feeling young at heart.
- Humor: And last but certainly not least, I believe in laughter...out loud, maybe just not in court. ^_^
