Following Liz’s announcement in early December, I’m sure a few of you have wondered whether we’d be adding to our editorial ranks. As of this month, our small but mighty team has officially grown by one, and no one is more excited about it than I am!  

I’d like to take a minute to introduce myself since you’ll be hearing more from me soon. I’ve spent the last 14 years as a corporate securities attorney in private practice, having joined the law firm world in fall 2008 (not the easiest of times).  

Since you all seem to share my love of lists, I thought I would introduce myself, and my passion for our sites, with my top three reasons for joining CCR Corp. 

1. John, Liz, David and Alan. I appreciate that there are personalities behind our sites. If you also use our sites daily, I’m sure you share my deep appreciation for the time they spend keeping our members in the know.  

2. Sharing my experience. I love that our sites go beyond substance to share practical skills for all career levels from new associates, to new in house counsel to the path to GC.  I hope to make your job easier and help you look great in front of your clients and your CEO and Board!  

3. Connecting with all of you. We’re more than a resource; we’re a community. I look forward to interacting with our members at our annual Proxy Disclosure & Executive Compensation Conference (a not-to-be-missed event!) and on our Q&A forums and learning from you too. Thank you for all you do! 

You can also read my bio on our About Us page. I feel compelled to alert you that my presence here may increase our tally of exclamation points and millennial pop culture references. You’ve been warned! 

Please feel free to drop me a line anytime at mervine@ccrcorp.
