Who did you meet with today?

Today I met with Mera Baker Ramos, who graduated from college and became a teacher but then realized she wanted to be a lawyer and became a lawyer.  I Also met with Sarah Kollman which is also a lawyer and they both work in the charter school field

Where do they work?

Mera Bake works as an in-house lawyer for Blueprint. She makes sure all of the things go smoothly and good how they should and if there's a problem with some type of budgeting, she helps. And Sarah works as a lawyer she helps charter schools with contracts and real estate transactions.

What did you learn today?

Today I learned what they look for as a lawyer, what they do and how it's not something that is just easy to do. They explained to us how it was that they had to do a test that took 8hrs a day and it was not easy at all

What insights did you gain into the field of real estate development?

Some insights i had were related to all of the things that they do as lawyers. And how it's not simple at all. Most of the time it's a lot of going back and forth till they get what they want right.

What did you find the most interesting about the field after today?

I found it interesting that there are people that are actually there for Blueprints when they need a lawyer.
