About

As Chief Legal Officer at Accumulus Technologies - a commercial technology company spun out of Accumulus Synergy - I oversee enterprise legal strategy, compliance, and risk management for a platform redefining how regulatory bodies and pharmaceutical companies share data worldwide. With prior legal experience at UPMC and the FDA’s Office of the Chief Counsel, I bring a robust understanding of healthcare regulation, public-private coordination, and life sciences policy. I’ve also clerked in Federal District Court and worked for leading national law firms, helping complex life sciences organizations navigate change. Holding both a J.D. and an M.P.H., I sit at the intersection of law, medicine, and technology—where innovation must move quickly, but responsibly.
