Current Job: Last month, she was named an associate counsel to President Obama (holy crap!). She was the chief staff counsel to Mr. Obama’s campaign and worked at campaign headquarters in Chicago (ooooh he owed her. got it. still dayum).

Education: Graduated from Bowdoin and received a law degree from the University of Chicago.

Parents: The bride’s father is a partner in Perkins Coie, the Seattle law firm, where he specializes in commercial litigation. The mother isn’t interesting enough apparently.

Eric Volkman

Age: 33

Current Job: Associate specializing in white collar criminal defense and government investigations (hey I think he has an “in” now you guyz!) in the Washington office of Latham & Watkins, the Los Angeles law firm.

Education: Graduated from Haverford College and received his law degree from the University of Virginia.

Parents: The bridegroom’s mother is the managing director of Strategic Insights, a business consulting firm in Stamford, Conn. (Probably is laughing about how she got mentioned but the bride’s mother wasn’t). His father is a retired immunologist who was a professor of medicine and pediatrics at the State University of New York at Stony Brook.

Verdict: Decent degrees, the mention of Obama makes an otherwise standard article sparkly.
