ASK A FILIPINA: #24 DISRUPT Leadership Tip from Judge Cheryl Nora Moss (U.S. FWN100 '11)
Keep promises and maintain a good reputation. Upon being elected and re-elected for two subsequent terms, I have maintained professionalism on the bench and stayed connected with the community by volunteering to do inductions of officers, judging high school mock trial competitions and doing speaking engagements to educate the public about family court and the law.
