Friends of IWIRC NY,

Fall is here and along with the seasons, things are changing over at

with what looks to be an impressive field of candidates!

member news, social media update and other standard newsletter
content. In addition, we have a special "Elections" section detailing
our ballot, candidates bio and short farewells from our parting members. For IWIRC NY members, please don't forget to vote!
We look forward to working with this new board to continue providing you with top quality substantive and social programming. In the meantime, we look forward to seeing you at our now famous Pitch Perfect: A Mock Pitch Event, taking center stage at Carnegie Hall on October 15th. Good luck teams!

Book Club – I Leaned In, Now What?
Sister Networks in NY, Dallas and St. Louis
By
We held a modern-age, videoconference book club on July 15, 2014, I Leaned In, Now What?, that joined
together the Chapters. The more than 40 attendees accepted the
challenge to build the next chapter after Facebook COO book - Attendees were
generous in their time and openness, sharing personal stories, triumphs and victories in balancing their work,
career aspirations, and personal priorities, making the event tremendously successful.
This incredible, ever evolving subject, strikes chords in so many people. We discussed the choices of "Opting-In"
versus "Opting-Out" and how certain individuals found career success when they strategically chose instances
when they made their personal life a priority, while balancing making their career a priority at other times. A
central theme emerged that it does not need to be an all or nothing choice, though many admitted struggling
with wanting to maintain their status as a "go-to" person in their organization. The elevated discourse on such a
personal topic was instrumental in the event's success. The follower were additional themes from our discussion:
• We should be encouraging women and their choices. no matter how obvious a statement, a helpful reminder.
• Emerging out of each chapter were voices encouraging us to shape self expectations, including those of your
colleagues and those of your clients to help to manage your schedule and your life.
• More than once someone shared that "life is what happens while everyone is making plans" reminding us not
to lose sight of the journey and how much joy can be there - rather than just waiting for a "destination" or "arrival."
We opened and closed our discussion about what happens after leaning in by focusing on the word freedom. We each can choose what freedom means for us, our careers and our families. Ultimately - maybe, as one commentator stated, freedom is that we are able to make choices - whatever choice that is. If you missed our event – keep your eyes peeled for next summer's book club. In the interim, we found a few relevant items that you might find of interest includi (along with ). A tremendous thank you to the more than 20 attendees in NY, the more than 20 attendees in Dallas (including IWIRC NY members Ali Kelly and Denise Kaloudis) and our 3 attendees from Kansas City. And – a special thank you to David Benick, the brave gentleman who attended in NY and provided some welcomed insight from his experience working with and supporting women he greatly admires and that have struggled with this very issue.

On August 6-8, more than 80 IWIRC leaders gathered in San Francisco for the a two day conference focused on IWIRC leadership initiatives, growth, development and planning for 2015 and beyond. The group included the entire IWIRC International board as well as leadership from each of IWIRC's more than 40 international chapters and boasted women from 20 states as well as Canada, Hong Kong, Grand Cayman, Japan, Germany and Singapore. At the summit, chapter co-chairs and IWIRC board members held panels on IWIRC-specific issues and then were treated to a fantastic keynote presentation from the featured speaker, Professor from the on The Value of Investing in Women. After the speaker concluded, the entire group enjoyed an outing to wine country, featuring shopping, private wine-tastings and finally, a fantastic vintner's dinner at the J Vineyards barrel room, where the ladies were welcomed by the J Vineyards owner herself, Judy Jordan. The last day included board and committee meetings, with ample opportunity for networking with and getting to know other attendees. It was a terrific conference with equal parts fun, bonding and working hard to brainstorm and strategize for a successful 2015. We are thrilled to announce that IWIRC NY has been selected to host more than 100 women from around the globe the 2015 Leadership Conference in July! We look forward to seeing you all in NYC!
IWIRC Annual Conference
Chicago, IL
Yet another successful Fall Conference this year in with 193 registrants two informative panels, including NY Chapter sponsors the introduction of the new board, announcing of the 2014 Rising Star Award, from and some incredible intermezzo events, like the famous architectural tour boat cruise through the Windy City. The registration was the highest yet for the Fall Conference! The panels included presentations on issues of law firm insolvencies and a session on everything you wanted to know about healthcare and healthcare bankruptcies. The healthcare panel was organized and moderated by NY Chapter Chair, from , with an enlightening presentation by panelist Jane Jordan, the Chief Counsel for Emory Healthcare on the transformation of the healthcare system in the US. Emory has been in the news recently for its successful treatment of the first ebola patients recovered from Liberia this summer and we appreciated Jane's time and commitment to the program. Our own also provided invaluable insight into the handling of healthcare bankruptcy issues and a reminder that these are not your typical hard or soft asset cases; they're first and foremost about human beings. The panels were followed by our annual luncheon where IWIRC Chair passed the baton to our incoming chair Beth Hansen and all the new Board members were introduced. The NY Chapter applauds Jennifer's hard work during her very successful tenure as Chair, and we congratulate Beth as the new chair and look forward to another successful year!

Kirkland & Ellis LLP
have been part of the New York restructuring community for over four years. After graduating from the
University of Pennsylvania (undergrad and law school), I served as a law clerk for Chief Judge Gonzalez in
the SDNY, which immediately confirmed my interest in bankruptcy law. I joined the renowned bankruptcy
practice at Weil Gotshal after my clerkship and recently lateraled to Kirkland & Ellis, a move that has
allowed me to expand my practice and network. I am still close with (and would work well with!) Saima
Meyer, another Weil alum and current co-chair of Social Events. I have experience brainstorming and
organizing events from my positions as social chair and president of different organizations at Penn, as well
as my involvement with the summer committee and various other committees at Weil. After attending this
past year's events, my interest in IWIRC has sky-rocketed, and I'd be honored to help continue the good
work of the prior board in creating fun, effective social events. As one of the few female associates at
Kirkland, I am eager to serve as a mentor and confidante to my fellow restructuring colleagues - I believe a
board position at IWIRC is the perfect vehicle to achieve that goal!

I have recently joined GlassRatner as a Director on their New York office, after spending 13 years with
Zolfo Cooper (and their related companies). I have been an active member of IWIRC since joining in early 2013. I would be honored to serve on the IWIRC board in New York. I have been fortunate to develop many wonderful relationships with many impressive women through this organization. As a member of the board, I would strive to help other women like myself to be enriched by IWIRC. The level of collegiality, friendship and mentoring amongst the members of IWIRC in New York is something that every woman, in this male dominated field, should have the opportunity to experience.

Board Co-Chair
October 2012-October 2014
The last two years have been quite a journey! From private poker parties in Meatpacking nightclubs to
center court at MSG and center stage at Carnegie Hall, it has been a thrill to bring the members of IWIRC
NY new and exciting experiences. IWIRC is an incredible organization that brings together and promotes
the women of restructuring. I am proud to leave behind a legacy of innovative signature substantive and
social events as well as a strong communication network on both social media and through our interactive
newsletter. Enhancing the structure, building a sense of community and furthering the IWIRC vision has been
an honor.
I have truly enjoyed every moment working with this talented group of women. While my entrepreneurial
spirit is calling loudly and thus my departure from the board, I will not be far. I look forward to continuing
as the Outgoing Board Advisor and experiencing all the excitement the new and continuing board are sure
to bring us.
Vice Co-Chair
October 2012-October 2014
My time serving as Co-Vice Chair of the IWIRC NY board has been enriching and rewarding both
professionally and personally. I am grateful to have had the opportunity to work with so many great
women in the restructuring industry, my fellow board members and the wonderful women of IWIRC NY and
beyond, and would like to especially thank the ladies of the IWIRC NY board. Working together to
reinvigorate and strengthen this incredibly dynamic chapter has showcased what a group of talented,
motivated, and intelligent women can set in motion. Although stepping down from the board, I am excited
to remain involved at the international and chapter levels. You will hear it time and again from anyone
associated with IWIRC, but not only do you build valuable professional relationships, you make friends for
life.
I look forward to seeing what's up next from IWIRC NY!

Substantive Events Co-Chair
October 2012-October 2014
IWIRC is an outstanding organization with a well-deserved reputation for professionalism, progressive
thinking and – not least – the promotion of women in our industry. In my role as Co-Chair of Substantive
Programming for our New York chapter, I worked with my fellow board members to design a professional
development program for our membership that provided the balance they're looking for; substantive events
that deliver both intellectually and socially. This has been a rewarding experience, and I am grateful to
have had the privilege of working with and learning from a terrific group of women in restructuring, making
new connections and strengthening my relationships. I want to thank my fellow board members for their
hard work on the membership's behalf, but more importantly I want to thank my fellow IWIRC members for
their enthusiasm and support. Moving from New York to San Francisco with my family may require that I
step down from my position in the New York chapter, but I intend to stay involved with IWIRC on the West
Coast. This is a special group of professionals, and I look forward to being a part of it for many years to
come. Thank you!
Social Events Co-Chair
October 2012-October 2014
It has been an honor and an amazing experience to serve the IWIRC NY chapter as Co-Chair of Social Programming
for the last two years. I was "bit" by the passion bug from the very first board meeting where I met some of the most
brilliant minds in restructuring. A room of mostly new faces quickly became friends and colleagues - a true example of
the power of working towards a common cause. And every event was well worth the hours of planning and work,
beginning with my baby - the IWIRC NY Poker Night. My hard work for each event and the work of our board was
only a part the equation - our passion as a board was met with equal enthusiasm from our attendees (many of whom
are now repeat offenders!) and the real proof is in the incredible increase in membership over the last two years.
I was particularly struck by a recent event that we put together joining the Dallas, Kansas City and NY IWIRC networks
for a book club - taking Sheryl Sandberg's "Lean In" one step beyond to look at what the next chapter is for our
professionals in "So I Leaned In - Now What?". I learned even more about myself and the power we each wield as
female leaders, both professionally and personally. While it has been one of the hardest decisions of my career to
(temporarily.) "Opt Out" of my leadership role on the IWIRC NY board, I continue to "Opt In" in my career, my
family, and those causes I hold close to my heart - in particular, the I am grateful for
having had the opportunity to serve you all and I look forward to attending future network events with you all and
participating with you on IWIRC NY subcommittees.
