Ria Manguray is an award-winning in-house lawyer and experienced corporate practitioner with over 10 years of combined experience in the legal industry in the United States and Australia. At the time of this interview, she was Legal Counsel for Tourism Australia; she’s since moved into a similar role at The Iconic.  In this episode, you’ll hear how Ria’s career has had a number of twists and turns: she started out in California as a paralegal, before deciding to make a big change and move to Australia as a single parent. She also shaes how her career as a paralegal enabled her to jump into in-house roles earlier than most, and how the theme of “giving back” has had a big impact on her career.
