My Background
I'm Veronica Canton, Esq., CIPP/US/E, CIPM, and FIP. I am a seasoned professional with over two decades of extensive experience in the legal arena, including a notable six-year tenure as a practicing attorney. Throughout my career, I've embraced continuous professional development, recognizing its pivotal role in achieving numerous milestones and goals. My trajectory stands as a testament to the profound impact of laying solid foundational knowledge in tandem with crafting robust professional development strategies as the cornerstone of success.
A graduate of Notre Dame Law School, my professional journey has included intimate small-scale operations to bustling mid-size firms and prestigious global law firms, where I've lent my expertise to an array of clientele spanning from startups to industry-leading juggernauts. I've provided invaluable counsel on a spectrum of pivotal matters, including data privacy, technology, and, more recently, transactions involving artificial intelligence.
My multifaceted portfolio encompasses a rich tapestry of roles, ranging from corporate counseling and spearheading privacy program development to orchestrating data breach remediation efforts and navigating complex class action litigation scenarios. My commitment to excellence is underscored by a suite of esteemed certifications, including the coveted CIPP/US, CIPP/E, and CIPM credentials from the International Association of Privacy Professionals, alongside my designation as a Fellow of Information Privacy.
The Canton Privacy, Tech, & AI Report
The Canton Privacy, Tech, and AI Report is a labor of love born out of the scores of conversations I've had with law school students, junior professionals, and seasoned professionals looking to transition into data privacy, tech, and artificial intelligence industries. Through these conversations I discovered a common set of common questions. But more than that, I discovered everyone I interact with is looking for one small window of support and a small window of opportunity to join those of us working in these fields.
With that in mind, I launched The Canton Privacy, Tech, and AI Report, with the first publication launching on March 1, 2024. The Reports will consist of three inaugural series:
- Series 1 - Privacy - March 2024 - Continuing Privacy Education credits approved by IAPP
- Series 2 - AI - May 2024 - Continuing Privacy Education credits approved by IAPP
- Regular Monthly Series starting in mid-June 2024 - providing summaries, resources, and the latest developments on privacy, tech, and AI once a month
I've been fortunate to have mentors and coaches who guided me on my professional development journey up to this point of my career. With these reports I seek to share the knowledge I have with a wider audience with the goal of igniting someone's journey to one of these fun, engaging, and fast-changing industries to provide support to other professionals' journeys.
Join me. Have fun learning. Find success on your terms doing something you love.
