Tripp Scott’s Ashley Arinus Elected to Board of Directors of PAWS
Tripp Scott today announced that Ashley Arinus, an associate with the law firm, has been elected to PAWS board of directors. PAWS (Pets are Worth Saving) is the fundraising auxiliary to the Humane Society of Broward County.
Established in 1997, PAWS is dedicated to providing volunteer and financial support to help the Humane Society of Broward County (HSBC) advocate for and improve the lives of animals through adoptions, community service, and education. Funds raised through PAWS' signature events directly benefit the animals and programs at HSBC. By contributing to HSBC’s annual budget, PAWS has equipped staff with the necessary tools to advance the shelter’s mission.
Ashley is an associate with Tripp Scott and focuses her practice on Corporate Transactions, Mergers & Acquisitions and Entrepreneurial Business.
Ashley first joined the firm as a summer associate, and returned as a transactional associate after receiving her law degree from the Yeshiva University, Benjamin N. Cardozo School of Law, in New York City. During her time in law school, Ashley served on the board of the Moot Court Honor Society, where she not only competed as a quarter-finalist, but coached her team in multiple national competitions. In her last year of law school, she participated in ITRANS, an intensive program which mimics corporate practice and simulates the full cycle of a Mergers & Acquisitions transaction. As part of the program, Ashley was coached by various partners from New York City's largest law firms on the skills of negotiation, contract drafting and interacting with clients. Prior to attending law school, Ashley attended Nova Southeastern University and received a Bachelor of Science Degree in Business Administration and minor in Marketing, magna cum laude, where she played on the Women’s Basketball Team and co-founded a record label.
Passionate about the animals, Ashley also volunteers on Mondays at HSBC as a Dog PAL, where trained volunteers address the social and emotional needs of shelter dogs through one-on-one interactions and behavioral observations in the kennel.
