Calla Wilson-Traisman ’19 is thrilled to be joining the Second Look Project as a legal fellow. While in law school, Calla interned with the Federal Defender in the District of Oregon advocating for people on Oregon’s death row, and worked as a law clerk with the Peter Cicchino Youth Project in New York City. She was also a volunteer with the Parole Preparation Project and a student attorney in the Defenders Clinic. After graduation, she worked as a trial attorney at public defender offices in New Mexico and Missouri where she enjoyed litigating her cases with zeal and coming up with creative dispositions. Calla is passionate about advocating for the rights of people who are ensnared in the criminal legal system, and dreams of a world where the basic humanity and dignity of all beings is respected.
