Association’s Minority Counsel Program. Kennedy says she has benefi ted greatly from the wisdom


of numerous mentors. But, the one person who really stands out is her colleague, Krispy Kreme Senior Counsel Jamila Granger. “She is not only my friend and colleague, Jamila is


my go-to person for advice and guidance,” Kennedy says. “Many people have had a hand in my professional growth, but she is the person who takes the time to men- tor and teach me what it means to be a good attorney.” Kennedy pays it forward by managing and mentoring


the interns who come to the legal department. In addi- tion to a better comprehension of corporate law, Kennedy wants the next generation of lawyers to walk away with an understanding of the practical aspects of the law as applied to business. For example, Kennedy says she often includes interns in meetings with the Krispy Kreme human resources and legal departments so that they can observe fi rsthand how balance between employment or workplace policies and applicable laws is achieved. It’s just her way of enhancing lives through the joy that is Krispy Kreme. D&B
