Meet Jacob, this year's Parliamentarian, and a 1L from Savannah, Georgia. He is excited to help organize a range of events meant to further the mission of Tulane Tax Law Society. These events will not only help educate students interested in tax law but bring speakers and employers to TLS. Jacob's interest in tax law was initially sparked as a Peace Corp Volunteer in China who handled many legal issues his undergraduate students faced when they wanted to move overseas to study or work. This summer he will be externing for the Honorable Eldon E. Fallon and furthering his personal research into area of tax and corporate law. He can't wait to meet everyone in person or over a Zoom call!
