Milene Minassians

Milene is super excited to enter her last year of law school! In appellate advocacy, Milene loves that everyone has an opportunity to work on their public speaking skills, which she believes becomes more fun the more you practice! Last summer, Milene worked at Gibson Dunn & Crutcher on a variety of cases, including appeals, land use, constitutional and environmental law.

Milene has her degree in Political Science from UC Berkeley. Milene is from Glendale, CA. Milene loves being a dog mom to her Australian shepherd, Freddie Mercury. Fun fact: Milene used to work in LA city politics prior to law school!
