Legal Practice Coaches, Events, and Resources

I formerly worked as a Big Law Associate and spent two summers in Big Law at three different multinational firms. In my capacity as Stanford Law School's Asian Pacific Islander Law Student Association Co-President, I mentored numerous law students in the recruiting and interviewing process. My professional background is primarily in public service, but I love thinking through how time in Big Law can help law students accomplish their personal and professional goals. Reach out to me to talk through your law school and Big Law goals!

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.

Prior to moving in-house at a private investment fund (where I currently serve as General Counsel), I spent the first 5-6 years of my career at top law firms like Kirkland & Ellis and Gibson Dunn, where I specialized in complex M&A transactions and corporate governance, particularly in the energy sector. I hold a J.D. from the University of Texas at Austin and a B.A. in Economics from Texas A&M University.

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 coach lawyers and legal professionals from direct, lived experience across multiple sectors of the profession. I began my career in Big Law, served as a criminal prosecutor in government, and later worked as in-house corporate counsel at Amazon. I also spent years in legal recruitment and executive search, advising firms and companies on hiring, performance, and advancement decisions. I understand the pressure of billable hours, client demands, internal politics, and the unrelenting expectation of responsiveness that defines modern legal practice. My coaching combines strategic career expertise with a holistic approach that considers the whole person — not just the résumé. Legal careers affect identity, relationships, health, and long-term wellbeing. Having personally navigated the intensity of round-the-clock client service and high-stakes environments, I know that sustainability matters. Wellness practices were not a luxury in my own career; they were essential to functioning at a high level. I help clients clarify both professional ambitions and personal priorities, make aligned decisions about partnership, in-house transitions, leadership, or pivots, and build careers that are not only successful on paper but sustainable in real life.
