Advisory Board Member, Erika Engelson

GlamourGals is proud to announce that Erika Engelson has joined GlamourGals Advisory Board.

Erika B. Engelson is a special counsel in the New York office of Cadwalader, Wickersham & Taft LLP. Her practice is concentrated in the area of complex commercial litigation. Erika graduated summa cum laude from Florida State University in 1999. During her time at Florida State, Erika was a member of the Alpha Delta Pi Sorority. She was also a television correspondent for the school's news program. Erika also was actively involved with the athletic department through her involvement as a Garnet & Gold member. Erika earned her J.D. degree cum laude from Florida State University College of Law in 2002, where she was a member of the Law Review and Moot Court team. Erika is the Co-Chair of the
Professional Development Committee of her law firm's Women's Leadership Initiative. She is also a representative on Cadwalader's Firm Committee.

Erika became involved with GG after hearing its founder and president, Rachel Doyle speak. "The idea of being able to help young teens, while at the same time putting a smile on a senior woman's face, is truly remarkable," she says.

Erika's favorite aspect of GlamourGals is its unique ability to bring together two different generations who benefit from one another.

"The impact of allowing young women to become leaders and involved in their community will only further enhance the prospect of a bright future. And, as the granddaughter of a woman who still goes to the salon, I personally see how gratifying a little make over can make a senior woman feel," she notes.
