Hillary Woodward

Staff Attorney/Legislative Analyst, North Carolina General Assembly

J.D. Campbell University School of Law

BA University of South Carolina

When choosing to attend college, I knew that I one day wanted to be an attorney. To many, the path from the studio and stage to the courtroom might seem unconventional, but I quickly discovered many of the skills dance provided me translated easily. Dedication, adaptability, tenacity, and a strong work ethic served me well in law school and continue to serve me well today as I have worked both as a prosecutor and now as a staff attorney/legislative analyst. I am passionate about helping dancers recognize that they do in fact have transferable skills and can transition to other careers even if it may seem like they do not!
