Seattle, Washington, United States
Strategic litigation and enterprise risk executive with 18+ years building and scaling high-performing legal functions for Fortune 200 companies. I’m known for sharp judgment, operational discipline, and turning complex risk into competitive advantage. I’ve led companies through high-stakes moments — rapid global expansion, crisis response, and the responsible deployment of AI at scale. Along the way, I’ve modernized litigation programs, rebuilt outside counsel ecosystems, and rewired legal operations to deliver better outcomes at lower cost. I operate as a true business partner, working closely with the C-suite, Risk, Finance, Engineering, QA, and Operations to ensure legal strategy advances enterprise priorities. But what I’m proudest of is the teams I’ve built. Developing talent, sharpening judgment under pressure, and giving people the confidence to lead in moments that matter — that’s the work that fills my cup (and a Starbucks brown sugar caramel latte).
