From product launches to complex transactions, I provide senior legal strategy for technology companies. No full-time GC overhead required.
Practical legal guidance for the moments that matter, launches, deals, and decisions that move fast.
Licensing, SaaS agreements, vendor contracts, and partnership deals. Structured to move quickly without leaving risk on the table.
Legal review baked into your product lifecycle, from privacy-by-design to AI governance, terms of service, and launch readiness.
Senior GC strategy and execution on a flexible engagement, integrated into your team, available when decisions can't wait.
Science was my first love, I studied Molecular Plant Biology at UC Berkeley and spent time in research before law school drew me toward the complexity of technology and business. That scientific instinct for precision and curiosity about how things work has never left me, and I stay actively engaged with the latest advances across biotech, AI, and frontier science.
After earning my J.D. from USC Gould School of Law, I built a practice around technology transactions before going in-house at Yahoo! Inc. as Senior Legal Director, then later at Hopin, where I served as Head of Legal, supporting Sales, Business Operations, Product, Privacy, Security, and Sourcing for a fast-scaling global platform.
I know what it's like to be the lawyer in the room when the product team needs an answer in an hour, not a week. I bring that same urgency and practicality to every client.
I regularly use Claude to work faster, smarter, and more thoroughly, for research, drafting, and analysis. My clients benefit from AI-assisted efficiency without sacrificing the judgment and strategy that only comes from experience.
Years inside tech companies, at Yahoo and Hopin, changed how I think about legal problems.
Legal advice that enables your goals, not slows them down. I understand what's at stake beyond the contract.
I speak the language of your team. No translation layer needed between legal and technical.
I use Claude to work faster and more thoroughly, more research, tighter drafts, better analysis, so my clients get senior-quality work at startup speed.
No handoffs, no juniors on your work. You get one person who knows your company inside and out.

I'm the right fit if you need real legal depth without the overhead, and a partner who gets the product as well as the contract.
Pre-Series A through growth stage. You need a GC who can do everything, knows what matters now, and won't slow your pace.
If your product is the hard part, AI, ML, data platforms, I understand the legal landscape without needing a technical briefing every call.
Complex vendor relationships, customer agreements, API licensing. I've seen every flavor of SaaS contract and know where the landmines are.
Launching a new product line, spinning out, or bridging to a full-time GC hire, I can step in at any inflection point.
The best engagements start with a conversation. Reach out on LinkedIn or drop me an email, I respond within one business day.
