About Me

In the legal world, a single error can have massive consequences. I built my career in environments where work had to be perfect, every time. My foundation was laid at Covington & Burling, an AmLaw 50 firm, where I managed the full e-discovery lifecycle and supported high-stakes trial presentations for clients like Meta and Amazon. That meticulous, detail-oriented mindset is my baseline.

But I quickly realized that flawless execution wasn't enough if the processes behind the work were broken.

That’s where my passion for legal operations kicks in. I don’t just follow the playbook—I rewrite it. At the National Defense Industrial Association (NDIA), I authored 14 Standard Operating Procedures and used Generative AI and Microsoft Macros to automate redundant tasks, saving my team up to 90 minutes per project. I started my corporate career at Hertz, where I used Tableau to translate complex service and refueling data into a story that completely revamped our customer service training.

Today, I bring this hybrid toolkit to the legal operations team at the Washington Metropolitan Area Transit Authority (WMATA), ensuring the DC Metro's legal infrastructure is data-driven, streamlined, and built for the future.

Backed by a B.S. in Legal Studies with an Accounting focus, I sit at the intersection of paralegal precision, data analysis, and operational strategy. I build the systems that allow legal teams to do their best work, confident that the data is clean, the process is efficient, and the details are handled.

A much needed reminder of renewal and optimism after tragedy.
