Without a doubt, my mum inspired me to pursue a career in the law. Mum was proof of the skill sets built from a law degree (although now I realise those attributes are largely inherent in her!). A favourite job was clearing out the impression trays used to make moulds for dentures. It wouldn’t be allowed these days, but I absolutely loved helping dad and the dental nurses. It took time to adjust to the idea that this was my team to shape in the way I wanted.
