Aug. 27 Boyd Briefs Now Available

The Aug. 27 issue of Boyd Briefs is now available.

This week's edition features Professor Jean Sternlight, student Anthony Ruggiero, and alumna Amber Robinson '06.

Jean Sternlight is Director of the Saltman Center for Conflict Resolution and Michael and Sonja Saltman Professor of Law. This year alone, she received both the ABA Section of Dispute Resolution Award for Outstanding Scholarly Work and the Lifetime Achievement Award from the American College of Civil and Trial Mediators.

Born in Brooklyn and raised in Queens, Anthony earned a B.S. in Criminal Justice from St. John's University and embarked on a career in the field. After moving to Las Vegas, he earned a master’s in Public Administration from UNLV and established a formidable record of service in the areas of public affairs and public communications.

Amber continues to be active at Boyd as a board member on the Alumni Chapter Board since 2012. She has served as Board secretary and is currently the treasurer. In 2011, Amber opened her own firm, Robinson Law Group, exclusively practicing in family law.
