JD, Northwestern Pritzker School of Law

Hi there! I completed my Juris Doctorate from Northwestern Pritzker School of Law, a T-14 law school in Chicago, Illinois. Prior to that, I completed my Bachelor of Arts in Government & World Affairs, Bachelor of Arts in Music, and minor in Criminology from The University of Tampa and graduated Magna Cum Laude, the top 10% of my class.

I am a solutions-oriented attorney and focus on intellectual property, technology, data privacy, and regulatory matters. I started off my career as a corporate legal fellow at a high-growth start-up where I counseled 125 business owners on avoiding pitfalls as they navigated from newly-commenced startups to established and successful corporate entities. Specifically, I advised on overall intellectual property brand management, domestic and international expansion, and strategic protection; entity formation; contract drafting and negotiation; corporate governance; and pre-litigation matters. Thereafter, I transitioned in-house serving as corporate counsel to global companies in the travel agency, media & entertainment, and healthcare technology spaces. In those roles, I led the implementation of strategic initiatives, negotiated technology and commercial transactions, and advised senior executives and key stakeholders on effectively managing risk to leverage long-term business growth.

I am passionate about learning, educating, speaking, writing, editing, publishing, mentoring, and helping others succeed in all that they set their mind to. When I am not practicing law, I leverage my background and skill sets by serving on boards, volunteering in my community, reading for personal growth and development books, playing musical instruments, running races, and conquering obstacle courses.
