About the Event
Candid Conversations is an intimate round table discussion featuring remarkable professionals who will share their journeys and valuable insights into their training and development. Their stories of dedication and resilience will inspire you to reach your own career goals. Our inaugural speaker is Rosa Kwon Easton, a Korean American lawyer and author of the debut novel, White Mulberry, an Amazon First Reads Editor’s Pick and a #1 Best Seller in Historical Fiction. Released on December 1, White Mulberry follows a teenage girl who leaves an impoverished village in northern Korea in the 1930s to seek a better future in Japan. Easton visited both Korea and Japan for research and the sequel, RED SEAL, is scheduled to launch in 2026. Engage in candid conversations, ask questions, share experiences, and gain practical advice.
