Professor Forgues is an attorney, associate professor of business law, and aspiring data scientist. She has a diverse legal background that includes litigation and transactional experience at both large and mid-sized law firms, a state judicial clerkship, and an internship with former United States Congressman and presidential primary candidate Bernard Sanders (I-D). She knows just enough about data science to be dangerous. Professor Forgues enjoys sports and recreation of all kinds. She has joined students in playing ice hockey against the Boston Bruins Alumni team, playing basketball against the Harlem Rockets, and playing flag football with Doug Flutie to promote the Flutie Foundation for Autism. She also enjoys general aviation, and occasionally you can see her flying a Cherokee Warrior around a variety of airfields in New Hampshire and Massachusetts.
