My Story

I graduated from Northwestern Law School with $218,614.77 in student loans. After taking and passing the NY bar exam, I started my legal career as a litigation associate at a Vault Top 5 firm (Sullivan & Cromwell LLP) in New York City. After changing offices (NYC to LA) and firms (from S&C to O’Melveny & Myers LLP), I realized that BigLaw wasn’t the right professional track for me. I was able to do a secondment at Sony Pictures, which led to a full time in-house position there. That led to my current in-house role as Director of Regulatory & Trade Compliance for a global entertainment company. These days I live on Bainbridge Island, WA (a short ferry boat ride away from Seattle) with my partner and our three kids (four if you count our black lab Sadie :-).
