Michelle Diffenderfer, Lewis, Longman & Walker, P.A., president and shareholder, was elected Chair of the American Bar Association Section of Environment, Energy, and Resources (ABA SEER). An active member of the section for more than 25 years, her leadership within ABA SEER began as a committee vice chair in 2002. Since then, she has held various leadership positions within the organization, including education officer, budget officer, secretary, and most recently vice chair and chair-elect. She will serve a one-year term. She writes: “I am excited and honored to be named chair of the section. I grew up as an environmental lawyer in SEER and am thrilled to be able to give back to the section that provided me with mentoring, leadership experience, and so many friends through the years. My priorities include bringing us back together again in person at conferences to exchange information and ideas about environment, energy, and natural resources laws. I am also excited to continue the section’s work on diversity, inclusion, and equity for all our members and helping our section implement ABA’s Environmental Justice Resolution.”
