Elandri spent years looking for the part of the construction industry that felt like home. She was good at engineering, but good at something and genuinely lit up by it are two different things. What finally clicked was law — and more specifically, the language of it. The way a single word in a contract clause can completely change its meaning. The way precision matters. The way getting it right actually protects people. That discovery gave her a sense of purpose in her work that she hadn’t felt before, and it shows in how she approaches every instruction she takes on.

Outside of work, she runs long distances — the kind that require more mental grit than physical fitness. She reads constantly, with a soft spot for legal thrillers, and is happiest at home with her husband and two kids. She takes her work seriously, but never loses sight of the fact that there’s always a real person on the other side of every contract.
