Davis brings public-sector experience, including work on Right-to-Know Law requests and appeals, zoning and land-use matters, and drafting ordinances and easements. She previously worked with the Pennsylvania Higher Education Assistance Agency, where she focused on legislative and regulatory initiatives affecting the student loan industry.
Prior to joining Babst Calland, she was an associate at Eckert Seamans Cherin & Mellott. She earned her law degree from Widener University Commonwealth Law School in 2022.
The appointment reflects Babst Calland’s continued expansion of its labor, employment, and public sector capabilities to support clients across both private and government-related matters.
