Put a Big Law attorney from the Big Apple in your corner. For years, I've helped students from across the country reach the upper tier of US and international law firms (e.g. Cravath, K&E, Skadden, etc.), and I'd love to help you: Polish your resume. Nail the interview. Land your dream job. After years working as a deals lawyer in the New York office of Clifford Chance, I am now in-house with a large asset manager and continue to work daily with premier US and international law firms. I hold a JD from BYU’s J. Reuben Clark Law School and, prior to joining Clifford Chance, clerked with the US Attorneys Office, Baker McKenzie and Wilson Sonsini’s tech subsidiary SixFifty. Since entering legal practice, I’ve enjoyed coaching individuals through the most crucial steps of the Big Law hiring process, including complex and shifting timelines, prepping for interviews and securing offers at their target firms. Whether you just need a second set of eyes on your resume or deeper insights into the application process, I'm here to help.

Welcome to my profile! As a current JD candidate at UCLA School of Law, I bring a wealth of experience and insight into the legal field. My journey includes being a 1L Leadership Council on Legal Diversity Scholar and gaining hands-on experience as a Summer Associate at Hogan Lovells, with exposure to in-house legal work at IBM. During my undergraduate years at UC Santa Barbara, I was actively involved in the admissions committee, which honed my skills in evaluating applications and understanding what makes a candidate stand out. I am passionate about helping aspiring legal professionals navigate their career paths and law school applications. Let's connect to strategize your journey into the legal world!

I'm a Stanford Law School grad working in-house in business operations at a startup. I previously advised startups at Goodwin Procter and developed product legal strategy at Microsoft. Before making the leap from law to business, I received summer associate offers from the top technology law firms, including Cooley, Fenwick & West, Gunderson Dettmer, and Wilson Sonsini. I also got offers from more traditional biglaw firms, like Skadden, Latham & Watkins, and Kirkland & Ellis. If you're a law student considering technology law, or a law student/lawyer thinking of pursuing a career in business instead, let me help! I can guide you through that decision and help you plan your next steps.

You might be: • Ready to land the job, build the career, and create the life you’ve been dreaming about—or at least take a bold step in that direction. • Open to letting go of limiting beliefs that have been holding you back. • Curious about what success could look like on your own terms, beyond the conventional path. With a J.D. from the University of North Carolina School of Law and over 20 years of experience in the legal field, I specialize in helping attorneys and aspiring legal professionals navigate their careers with clarity and confidence. Whether you're exploring career development, managing workplace dynamics, or questioning whether law school is the right move—I’m here to help.

I have worked as a lawyer for over 10 years and as a law school admissions coach for just as long. I know exactly what it takes to craft a stand-out application to set a candidate apart amidst a sea of immaculate numbers.

I've navigated legal roles in several sectors, most notably at top big law firms. I successfully recruited across 4 major metro markets across a gambit of big law firms and have unique insight into managing the application process beyond the schools career services. I've helped students plan and go through this process as early as 0L through 3Ls, with strong results at market firms. Further, I always stress thinking about more than the names. The calculus for where you end up is unique for each individual and I genuinely believe each person needs to take a step back and figure out where is the right fit for them, which can be incredibly hard to do while at the law school environment with so many external factors weighing. I also realize that the support you get for private sector recruiting can be incredibly varied depending on your law school and love to serve as the support you need. It can be tough when you recruit to a market outside of your school's geographic area or a number of other challenges that we can tackle together and lead your to success.

Finding a job as a summer associate or full-time attorney is a unique process with its own set of rules, and the rules have changed dramatically in recent years. To be successful in finding a job as an attorney, you need to build both your skillset and your network. I began my career in patent litigation at Kirkland & Ellis in New York City, one of the top firms in the country. After I left Kirkland, I moved to various states with my family and created employment opportunities where few opportunities were available. I want to share with you the skills I developed so you will be able to nail your legal acumen and also navigate social and professional situations to develop the career you are looking for. Securing summer and post-graduate employment is now the responsibility of every individual student or attorney, but you don't have to go through the process alone. Whether you help finding opportunities, tips for building connections, a résumé refresh, or edits for a cover letter, I can guide you through the process and share insights that have been successful in navigating my own career as an attorney. I can't wait to help you succeed!

As a recent Stanford Law School JD graduate and a Knight-Hennessy Scholar, I bring a range of experience in public service legal roles as a law student and new attorney, including with the Department of Justice, private public interest firms, and federal clerkships. My diverse legal background, from clerking to interning with the House Foreign Affairs Committee Legal Counsel, equips me with a deep understanding of the legal field. I am passionate about helping aspiring legal professionals navigate their career paths, offering insights into law school applications, internships, and clerkships. Let's work together to achieve your legal career goals—reach out to start your journey today! What's the process? It depends on your goals and preferences, but I typically like to do a 15-30 minute initial meeting to understand your background, goals, and priorities. We identify tasks to accomplish and set deadlines for each, taking a step-by-step approach that feels manageable. Clients can send written drafts anytime, and I provide written feedback within 48 hours. I'm always available to answer pop-up questions and support. We schedule follow-up meetings as needed.

Law school grades are important, but the interview doesn't get nearly enough attention by candidates. I had an incredible OCI experience, and would love to share some simple tips and tricks to which I believe I owe my success. As someone who has sat on both sides of the law firm interview many times, I can pepper you with dozens of questions that will be asked, and will provide you with real-time feedback so you can join the firm of your dreams.
