My career has been dedicated to engaging and problem solving with legal professionals. Through my perspective as a former practicing attorney, I put myself in the legal professional's shoes and deliver practical solutions that drive strategic value, efficiency, and process improvement. As Director, Knowledge & Innovation at Paul Hastings, I utilize my expertise in legal knowledge management, GenAI, operations, practice/project management, and legal tech to provide critical advice and to execute on initiatives. I draw upon my recent experience at McKinsey, where I directed the design, creation, development, and maintenance of a comprehensive legal knowledge platform for the global legal department (250+ attorneys). I understand how attorneys and legal professionals within legal departments and law firms work, what they need on a daily basis, and how to solve problems distinctive to the legal industry.
