Fractional General Counsel for Founder-Led and Growth-Stage Companies
Big Law Experience with Affordable Pricing
Modern Counsel for Modern Companies
Technology is changing how legal services are delivered. AI can accelerate drafting and research. It cannot exercise human judgment.
My practice is built on combining technology-driven efficiency with executive-level context and accountability.
My role is to bridge both worlds — executive-level discipline with founder-level speed.
