Maria D'Avanzo - Academic Background and Early Professional Career

The Compliance Life details the journey to and in the role of a Chief Compliance Officer. How does one come to sit in the CCO chair? What skills does a CCO need to navigate the compliance waters in any company successfully? What are some of the top challenges CCOs have faced, and how did they meet them? These questions and many others will be explored in this new podcast series. Over four episodes each month on The Compliance Life, I visit with one current or former CCO to explore their journey to the CCO chair. This month, my guest is Maria D'Avanzo. We discuss Maria’s journey from a real estate and probate lawyer to compliance,  then CCO chair, and now as the Chief Evangelist Officer at Traliant.  Maria attended the College of the Holy Cross and St. John’s University School of Law. Her early professional career included working at a boutique litigation shop in White Plains, NY, defending mass tort litigations involving repetitive stress injury claims. She then moved to a small insurance defense firm also, White Plains. From there, she and her husband founded a small law practice focusing on real estate and small business transactions.  Resources Maria D’Avanzo LinkedIn Profile Traliant.com Learn more about your ad choices.
