She is highly active in the legal and professional communities, including years of service to the Pennsylvania Bar Association. Most recently, in 2021 and in conjunction with her positions as PBA Woman Governor and Chair of the PBA Diversity Equity and Inclusion Team, Nancy was recognized with the PBA President’s Award for her leadership with the PBA Diversity, Equity and Inclusion Team in recognition of the diversity initiatives she advanced, the programs she coordinated, and the engagement she fostered among the bar on diversity related issues.
