Hello! My name is Shereena Kamal, and I am currently a 3L at Elon University School of Law. I earned my undergraduate degree from North Carolina State University, majoring in Political Science with a minor in Business Administration.

Before and while at Elon Law, I gained hands-on experience in business operations, including LLC licensing and regulatory compliance. This included preparing Articles of Organization during LLC formations and managing the annual reporting requirements to maintain the company’s good standing.

During my second year, I completed a residency in practice as an extern at Kontoor Brands, Inc., where I further developed my knowledge of trademark law. I worked closely with the legal team on trademark registration and enforcement, including conducting searches for potential conflicts and assisting with the preparation and filing of trademark applications.

I am thrilled to be joining the Small Business and Entrepreneurship Clinic as a student attorney and look forward to assisting local businesses and entrepreneurs in entity formation and intellectual property applications.

 

Hello! My name is Kiera Connolly. I am a current 3L at Elon University School of Law. I am originally from New Jersey but made my way down south and got my bachelor’s degree in criminal justice and criminology with a minor in Spanish at the University of South Carolina. I then moved to North Carolina to pursue a career in law.

I am a Chair of the Elections Committee and a member of the Sports & Entertainment Law, First-Generation Societies and Women’s Law Societies and Phi Alpha Delta, the law fraternity.

This past spring I worked with Triad Legal Group in the family law department. I drafted agreements and gained litigation experience. I further explored these skills at Dummit Fradin, Attorneys at Law over the summer.

I am thrilled to have the opportunity to be a Student Attorney and to assist small and local businesses this fall!
