I earned my J.D. from the University of Southern California, Gould School of Law, where I served as a Senior Editor of the Southern California Law Review. I completed my undergraduate studies at the University of California, Santa Barbara, graduating summa cum laude with Dean’s Honors. I began my legal career at DLA Piper (US), where I worked in the areas of Media, Sports & Entertainment and Complex Litigation. I later joined K&L Gates LLP, focusing on Construction, Trade Secrets, Real Estate, and Complex Litigation. These roles provided experience at two top-ranked firms, with DLA Piper and K&L Gates ranked AmLaw 3 and AmLaw 29, respectively. My published work includes “Easy Come Easy Go: A Guide To California Cap-And-Trade Spending,” which appeared in Southern California Law Review, Vol. 95, No. 1.
