San Joaquin College of Law recently issued the following announcement.
“I’m honored to receive the “40 under 40,” he says. “Since I am a transplant from England, becoming part of the Fresno community was very important to me. Although I do have family in Fresno, I have made it a major focus to build my network of friends and contacts in the business community. I couldn’t have achieved what I have without the huge help and support of my friends, colleagues, and family.”
Adam was born and raised in London, England. He studied English and History at Leeds University. Upon graduating, he and his family moved to Fresno. Adam attended San Joaquin College of Law, passing the Bar in 2013. He practiced Personal Injury and Employment Law for four years at the Law Offices of Goldberg & Ibarra before shifting into the autism services field. Adam joined California Autism Center and Learning Group in 2016 as Chief Operating Officer and Board Member.
“I am close personal friends with the founder of California Autism Center,” he explains. “While the company was growing in its early stages, we worked together (unofficially) on building CAC’s internal compliance and HR department. Once the company was big enough, I ended up joining CAC full time as Chief Operating Officer... I was drawn to CAC by the passion of the staff and the cause of helping children with ASD and their families.”
Business Street Online say the annual list “recognizes some of the top young business professionals in the public and private sectors in Central California. They are leaders in their communities and have achieved great success before the age of 40. They were nominated by their peers and represent the future of the Central Valley.”
Considering the average age of a student at San Joaquin College of Law is 28, it isn’t easy for grads to achieve notability in the community before the age of 40. And yet, Adam is the sixth graduate to make the list in its 13-year history. Prior honorees include Lisa Bennett (Law ‘03), Adam Stirrup (Law ‘08), Sevag Tateosian (Law ‘08), Rachelle Taylor Golden (Law ’13), and Linda Barreto (Law ’14).
A reception for all “40 Under 40” recipients will be held from 6:00 to 8:30 pm on November 18, 2021 at Chukchansi Park.
