Sang Lee
As a leader in the realm of legal recruiting, Sang Lee has transformed how firms locate talent. A lawyer by training who pivoted to recruiting when she founded her own company (SJL Attorney Search) in 2004, Sang has worked tirelessly to solve the major issues holding back the industry, namely a high fee, commission-based system that doesn’t serve recruits or employers. A first-generation Korean-American immigrant, Sang’s personal motto is “Own the Awkward” and she has proven she’s not afraid to tackle anything in the legal recruiting industry. Since founding her first company then forming Volta Talent Strategies, Sang is now expanding her impact with her latest project – Thine. Thine leverages tech to compile personality and skill assessments, performance metrics, and predictive hiring algorithms that minimize bias and reduce costs. In the words of a legal recruiter peer, “Sang continues to demonstrate that she is creative, innovative, intelligent, hardworking, generous, and incredibly likable.”
