Judge Mary Kay Ryan Fenlon, newly elected to the Franklin County Municipal Court, is here to discuss her career journey, as well as the value and impact we can all make by our willingness to devote our time and talent to our community.

Her legal career has spanned many different opportunities including private practice, government, and corporate law. Judge Fenlon has also been a mentor to young lawyers and has given back to her community through volunteer work for the Columbus Legal Aid Society’s TAP program and the Franklin County Court’s Juvenile Justice Restoration program.
