Episode 7: From lawyer to 'entrée-preneur'

Life After Law School

When we think of law we tend to think of suits, wigs and courtrooms. One thing we rarely associate law with is food. So what would motivate two young lawyers to leap out of a legal career and start something revolutionary in the food business? Today you'll meet Penny Hagekyriakou, lawyer turned CEO of Drool, a food experience and event business that connects people across the globe. You'll also meet Tim McDonald, lawyer turned co-founder and director of Fonda Mexican. Founded in 2010, Fonda was very influential in the Mexican food boom and now has nine restaurants across Australia. How did law prepare them to be entrepreneurs? You'll learn Tim and Penny's tips and tricks from many years exploring their own unique career pathways.
