Cheryl is an incredible professional in talent, diversity of skills, reputation, and demeanor. In addition to being one of the hardest-working lawyers I've ever partnered with, she is enormously generous with her time and expertise, always willing to counsel and assist everyone from entrepreneurs to experts. She is an invaluable asset to her organization; able to strategize and innovate, while continuing a devotion to Bay Vista's vision and mission — serving those whose hopes and dreams to succeed, live well, and be happy are rooted in her own humble origins."

Working with Cheryl on nonprofit, educational, and real estate endeavors has been engaging and rewarding. She demonstrates the highest level of integrity, character, and work ethic — a sometimes rare combination today. She is resourceful and unconstrained by traditional boundaries when focused on an end some might see as a distant goal. Her approach, combining her corporate legal expertise, business savvy, teaching tenure, and real estate exposure, translates into profits for every endeavor she's involved in. As a participant, I continue to look forward to the wealth of business development opportunities she's created for Bay Vista, its subsidiaries, and those who partner with her."

"Professor Lee, I just wanted to inform you that I passed the California Bar Exam! I still consider you a mentor and I wanted to thank you for your wisdom and support. I remember you advised me not to attend a certain law school. Considering the fact that school is no longer ABA certified, I'd say that advice was invaluable. Furthermore, I have been able to have a prosperous law school and law clerk experience. I cannot begin to appreciate where I have come without recognizing and thanking the people that have contributed to this success; you have contributed to my success since the day you gave me my first LSAT prep book. I am sure I will be seeing you down the road."
