Celeste was born and raised in California in a family deeply rooted the legal field. Her grandfather was the owner of a law firm where she began working at the age of sixteen alongside both him and her mother. From those early years, she gained invaluable exposure to the law and developed a strong appreciation for the ways the law can meaningfully impact people’s lives.

She went on to attend Rutgers University and, upon graduation, earned a scholarship to Golden Gate University School of Law. During her first year, she worked as an intern for the Environmental Law & Justice Clinic, representing underrepresented communities on environmental matters. She later became the Managing Editor of the Environmental Law Journal, where she honed her legal writing, research, and leadership skills.

While still in law school, she transitioned to interning at the Legal Offices of Mann & Elias, where she gained experience with Employment Law. Over that time, she developed a passion for the field. Employment law uniquely allows her to advocate for fairness in the workplace, ensuring that individuals’ rights are protected and that employers are held accountable. She finds it rewarding to help clients navigate some of the most challenging and personal situations in their professional lives, and is committed to achieving outcomes that provide both justice and peace of mind.
