For this episode, we're in New York chatting to Stefano Barbagallo, Sonder's Principal U.S. Consultant. Here, Stefano shares his story from growing up in Australia to landing a role at Kirkland, enjoying a successful career as a lawyer and moving to New York to pursue his dreams.

Stefano joined Sonder last year after making the decision to leave biglaw and go into legal recruitment. His first-hand knowledge, market awareness, professionalism and people skills have led to him achieving huge success in a short timeframe. Stefano has helped an array of lawyers across the U.S. to advance their careers in some of the largest markets in the world, New York, California, Texas and London.
