Early Career and Education

Refining Expertise at The Dow Chemical Company

At The Dow Chemical Company, Ms. Huffman discovered a passion for intellectual property law, finding that she enjoyed drafting agreements and handling paralegal tasks. With her career aspirations solidified, she spent the next nine years refining her skill set.
