Alum Time: Cole Douglas
We at South Sound Business aren’t the only ones who think Cole Douglas, partner at Cochran Douglas law firm, and class of 2022 alum, is pretty awesome. The 34-year-old attorney recently was notified by the American Bar Association that he was selected as one of the organization’s “On the Rise — Top 40 Young Lawyers.”
The program recognizes the association’s young lawyers who “exemplify a broad range of high achievement, innovation, vision, leadership, and service to the profession and their communities,” according to Douglas. “(It’s) pretty exciting, as it’s limited to only 40 attorneys from across the nation.”
We asked Douglas to share some of his keys to success in business. Here’s what he had to say.
1. Wake up early.
2. Bet on yourself.
3. The only thing you can control in life is your effort.
