Bio
Katy Hunter, SPHR
Turkessa was successful at recruiting high caliber Summer Associates and Attorneys to Kirkland from varied backgrounds and practice groups. A major strength was her thorough event planning; she always detail-oriented, even during the very busy summer months.
Shawn Doby Johnnides
Turkessa was a wonderful person to work with - smart, funny, diligent, organized, and energetic. She was always a good resource for me and a strong mentor for those in her department. I would look forward to an opportunity to work with her again!
