Profile Change Log

Annotations and updates to public professional profile text.

I use this change log to annotate substantive updates to my public professional profiles.

Why here? Most profile platforms do not provide useful version history, even though professional profiles often serve as a public résumé of record. This part of my website gives me a place to record why, how, and when those revisions were made, without crowding the profiles themselves.

I work chronologically, keep structure light, and note later substantive revisions separately. I use this page for profile-revision clarity and to help keep the record of revisions durable over time. I am starting education and early career entries and moving forward chronologically; Later substantive revisions will be noted separately.

LinkedIn profile annotations

I added several education and early-career details to my LinkedIn profile.

1. Educational awards

I added past educational awards to LinkedIn’s Awards and Honors section. I did not add the same items to Avvo because they are education-history items, not legal-profile items.

2. Past research work

I added past research work and labeled each item by role. I added a co-author credit to the LinkedIn Publications section. LinkedIn provides a space for a direct URL link.

I added contributions as a research assistant to the LinkedIn Projects section. PDF links for those are: Cox, J., & Baucom, B. (2012). The Emperor Has No Clothes: Confronting the D.C. Circuit's Usurpation of SEC Rulemaking Authority. Texas Law Review, 90, 1811–1847. and Cox, J. (2013). Fraud on the Market After Amgen. Duke Journal of Constitutional Law & Public Policy, 9, 1–30.

3. Duke Law education dates

I kept Duke as one education entry because that is where I completed the J.D. The 2009–2013 range includes time away from school, which matters because my work history overlaps with that period. During enrolled terms, the work was limited to part-time; during time away from school, I was working. The 2009–2013 dates include three semesters away from Duke, all of which occurred after the end of 1L.
