Tuesday Takeover: Judge Heather Coyle

It is my honor to introduce Her Honor, Judge Heather Coyle to Takeover Tuesday! An Oklahoma native, Judge Coyle is definitely Sooner Born and Sooner bred. Choosing the University of Oklahoma as home for both her undergrad and law school education. Before her current position, Heather Coyle served as an Assistant District Attorney for twenty years. She is currently known as Judge Heather Coyle, serving as a District Judge for District 7, office 8 in Oklahoma County.

When Judge Coyle isn’t fashionably ruling the court room, she enjoys living the philanthropist life. She is involved within numerous foundations, but is most notably a founding member of Waytable. Waytable is program serving at risk youth. With her “find your fashion” mindset I’m excited for our newest Takeover Tuesday Contributor to guide us through the adventure of boss looks.

Tuesday Takeover: Elizabeth Barajas

I’m so stoked to welcome Elizabeth Barajas to share her take on a “Survivalist’s Guide to Fashion.” Back in the days when we were single and childless, Elizabeth and I would romp around Florida beaches and down Orange Street with the latest outfit we could squeeze on in our price range. Today Liz and I are both lawyers and both busy mothers living totally different lives with similar survival techniques. The vibe in Denver, Colorado, Liz’s current stomping ground, is often chill and laid back. With Liz’s busy and beautiful life, I wanted to hear her tips for getting through her week as an Assistant District Attorney, a mom, and what practical fashion tips she had to give when prioritizing comfort, versatility, and being a new mom. From our wild single times to the jungle that is motherhood, Elizabeth has confidently shown her ability to not only survive in any environment, but to thrive and look good while doing it. Enjoy!

Tuesday Takeover: Dean Jennifer Prilliman

Welcome Jennifer Prilliman to takeover this Tuesday! I first had the pleasure of meeting Jennifer in person in her role as Oklahoma City University School of Law’s Associate Dean for Administration and Distance Education when discussing the possibility of teaching a class for OCU Law. However, prior to meeting her, I had been following her social presence and was a fan. Over the pandemic so many of us grew, took on new projects, hobbies, and one I noticed was Jennifer’s running blog. Her story of how she used running as a way to get through the pandemic was inspiring and I immediately wanted to know more about her transformation and how she balances work, home life, and now training for marathons. I’m so excited to share Jennifer’s take on being true to yourself through fashion during this takeover.

Tuesday Takeover: Cassity B. Gies

Welcome Cassity B. Gies to Maz Modern. My experience with Cassity is as a friend and co-worker, and it has been my pleasure to watch her bloom from an eager and energetic law student to a litigator with the @phillipsmurrah family law team. Cassity has always made fashion and style look effortless in her very busy work and personal life, but she finds a way to manage it all with a smile, and that smile is among one of her best accessories. Watching her manage six children in a two lawyer household lets you know that she can handle the smallest or biggest challenges with style and grace. Cassity Gies is a firecracker of positivity and I’m excited she’s able to share her take on juggling her busy and beautiful life in style with the Maz Mavens. 🐝

For
this Tuesday Takeover I’d like to welcome my fearless friend Shiny Rachel Mathew to the blog. Long before she was the Queen B of tax law, I originally met Shiny as a law student at OCU Law. Sixteen years later, I’ve had the pleasure of watching her grow into a total BOSS, taking over the tax world through her co-ownership of the firm Polston Tax , authoring a book, numerous tv appearances, helping the public with tax issues, teaching continuing education courses at steak restaurants (great touch), and most recently I’ve gotten to know her as the best mother of three beautiful kids. Along with juggling the demands of a working mother, her generosity as a woman of faith and conviction shine through her work and philanthropy. I admire her ambition, her patience and foresight, her generous spirit, and her simply elegant style. She has the confidence and grace to pull off almost anything and I can’t wait to hear what she has to share during her takeover.

As a native Texan, Rana shows that her attention to detail does not just come from her work ethic which you can follow at @RealEstateWithRana, but also in her style which is always on point.

As a colleague, I most admire her confidence, tenacity, and her willingness to find solutions for working Oklahomans particularly in her new endeavor to protect voting rights and encourage new voters with “Grit for Democracy.” As a friend, I admire her loyalty, humility, positivity, and purpose-driven life. As a fashionista, whether it’s on-air as a reporter or appearing as a politician, she’s always camera-ready and has given me a few tips when I’ve needed to present well on camera.
