In her last semester before graduating, Zara Tayebjee ’26 conducted revealing, rapid-fire interviews with Berkeley Law faculty members for the new video series “Behind the Work.” Delving into their paths to academia, personal backgrounds, research projects, and career insights, the series also highlights the human side of professors — where they grew up, favorite campus spots, and what they’d be doing if they weren’t teaching law. Tayebjee recently spoke with Professor Colleen V. Chien ’02 about how technology can support criminal justice work in parts one and two, Professor Diana S. Reddy on the changing discourse about work and its connection to social community, and Professor Elena Chachko on the administrative law landscape.
