Neide was based in our New York Office as a Senior Project Manager and had been with RWS since October 2015. Neide was a great team member but more importantly a personal friend to many of us within RWS. She had a background in journalism, working in both the US and in her native Brazil. She had an immediate impact working on a large Brazilian/US litigation project, something that would become a niche for her, but not her only talent. She was kind and loyal and quickly flourished as both a colleague and a friend to all that knew her. She was very active in the RWS community as well, volunteering her time and talents to the NYC Fun and Philanthropy committee as well as many Diversity and Inclusion initiatives. Neide will be sadly missed by so many people who had the pleasure of working with her and knowing her.

Neide was a godsend when she joined the Legal team at a very critical time. A true champion! Aside from work, I cherished our long conversations on similarities and differences between Brazilian and Haitian cultures, especially around music and food. We compared notes on our upbringing and relationships with family members and uncovered many similarities. Her experiences in her personal life pushed her to join groups at fSDL/RWS embracing diversity and promoting LGBTQ+ awareness and understanding. I admired her commitment to actively participate in activities for the betterment of this world. We spend so many waking hours with colleagues, often more than with family members. I am a better man for having crossed paths with Neide Magalhães. She will be sorely missed.
