Olivia Mae du Plessis
What led me to this career? I was first inspired by the charismatic chants of my grandpa telling me about his cases as an attorney; like a child at a campfire inspired to change the world with her spark. He was a commercial lawyer, and I have been led toward the same but very different field since I have a passion for the environment. I continued to pave this legal pathway for myself, inadvertently, by fostering my love for interacting with people and lending a helping hand. As I grew, I became more interested in psychology and sociology. I am an artist, by nature, which means, to me, that law is art, that art is life and therefore law is a way of life: a tool to make a difference as an ambitious, outspoken woman.
