To the Duke Law Alumni Community -
I am honored and deeply grateful to assume the role of President of the Duke Law Alumni Association Board of Directors. Over the past twenty years, Duke Law has shaped my career in profound ways. Many of my most impactful mentors and colleagues in my life have come from this network, and I carry those relationships with me every day. This opportunity holds special meaning as I follow in the footsteps of outstanding alumni leaders.
As I reflect on this new chapter, I want to express my gratitude to the Duke Law community. From my days as a student to my current role, the Duke Law community has been a steady source of guidance, support, and inspiration. This community has not only helped shape my career, but it has also influenced the legal profession more broadly by demonstrating excellence, leadership, and an enduring commitment to service.
Thank you for entrusting me with this role. I’m excited to serve the Duke Law community and, together, build a vibrant, inclusive, and impactful alumni experience. This year, I look forward to giving back to the Duke Law community that has given so much to me.
Warmly,
Corey A. Lee
