The CBF is excited to welcome Sang-yul Lee, a Partner at K&L Gates LLP, as the CBF’s new Board President for the CBF’s FY 2025.
Sang-yul has been an exemplary board member for the CBF for several years, serving as an Officer since 2022. He has been actively involved in bar and legal organizations for many years before as well, highlighted by serving as president of the national NAPABA Law Foundation.
As Sang-yul takes the reins as this year’s CBF President, we thank Judge Kenya Jenkins-Wright for her exemplary service as our FY 2024 President, which was the culmination of many years as a dedicated member of the CBF Board and Young Professionals Board. Kenya has been an outstanding leader for the CBF throughout her tenure on the board, which was punctuated by an exemplary year as CBF President where she led our 75th anniversary efforts and played a lead role in expanding our commitment to justice, equity, diversity, and inclusion, or JEDI. She will continue to serve on the board as Immediate Past President this year.
