(a Fortune 1,000 Company) – was welcomed to Detroit on Thursday, Nov. 3, during a special event hosted by the Michigan African American In-House Counsel. “It is exciting news for Michigan to have an African American female serve as the general counsel of a publicly traded company,” said Angelique Strong Marks who co-chaired the event with Vanessa Williams. “April is only the second African American female in Michigan to have that distinction and the first for a Michigan Fortune 1,000 Company.” Pictured are (left to right) Sonya Soms, managing partner at Major, Lindsey, & Africa (an event sponsor); Roderick Gillum, partner at Jackson Lewis (an event sponsor); Angelique Strong Marks, general counsel, corporate secretary and compliance officer, MAHLE Industries Inc.; Bradley Gayton, general counsel of Ford Motor Co.; April Miller Boise; Maurice Jenkins, partner at Jackson Lewis; Marlo Roebuck, managing partner at Jackson Lewis; and Vanessa Patterson Williams, vice president, chief legal counsel and global privacy officer with IHS Markit.
