Annie Haselfeld, Recruiter in Denver

University of California at Berkeley and University of Colorado Law School alumna Annie Chu Haselfeld is a recruiter for BCG's Colorado region. She has lived in the Colorado region for nearly 20 years and draws upon connections in the area to place associates, of counsel, and partners in firms throughout Colorado and the Rocky Mountain West region.

Annie is a San Francisco Bay Area native. She frequently visits as she has many family members that still live there. She attended college at U.C. Berkeley with a double major in English and Mass Communications. During the summers, she interned at various television news stations in San Francisco and Washington, D.C.

After college, Annie worked as a television news reporter and anchor in Oregon and New Mexico. She was often a one-woman band and handled much of the videography and editing, as well as the writing and reporting. She enjoyed meeting members of the community and telling people's stories. She then worked in Los Angeles for two years as a news producer at an Asian language news channel.

Annie then decided to attend law school at the University of Colorado Law School in Boulder where she was a member of the Journal of Telecommunications and High Technology Law as well as the Asian Pacific American Law Students Association. After law school, Annie worked at Holland & Hart in both Denver and Boulder. She started as a commercial litigator and then moved to the Intellectual Property group where she handled contentious trademark matters before the Trademark Trial and Appeals Board, as well as general intellectual property litigation. At the firm, Annie also was active with recruitment efforts and interviewed and mentored new associates and summer clerks.

Annie left the practice of law to raise her three children. She missed the human connection that reporting brought, and also missed interviewing and mentoring attorneys. She has found that legal recruiting brings both worlds together. Annie enjoys helping attorneys find the right job and getting to know each of her candidates.

In her free time, Annie enjoys spending time with her family, hiking the beautiful Colorado mountains, reading, and watching her children's sporting activities. Annie is also a frequent traveler and loves immersing herself in other cultures.
