Welcome to my profile! I hold a JD from Stanford Law School and have spent several of the last years as an attorney at top firms, like DLA Piper and Fenwick & West, supporting founders, executives, and high-growth companies through complex decision-making, corporate governance, and high-pressure strategic moments.
