About Me

In law, a single error can carry enormous consequences. I built my career in environments where the work had to be right every time. That foundation came from 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. Meticulous, detail-oriented work is my baseline.

But flawless execution isn't enough when the process behind it is broken. That's where legal operations comes in—and where I do my best work. 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 Office macros to automate redundant tasks, saving my team up to 90 minutes per project. Earlier, at Hertz—where my corporate career began—I used Tableau to turn complex service and refueling data into a narrative that reshaped our customer service training.

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

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