EXPERIENCE

I am a lawyer with 10 + years of combined experience in litigation and in-house corporate matters.

I initiated my legal career primarily as a commercial attorney servicing small technology companies in their start-up phase and gained experience in licensing, equity, leases, and a wide array of general procurement matters. I have also gained experience in the negotiation of complex SaaS and professional services agreements in the cloud content storage and management technology sector.

As a litigator, I have extensive experience in business and civil rights litigation, ranging from client counseling at the inception of a case to all phases of discovery, motion practice, court hearings, mediation, trial preparation and settlement. I have litigated wage and hour, wrongful termination, sexual harassment, national origin discrimination, personal injury, breach of contract, commercial leases, fraud and breach of fiduciary duty matters. I am admitted to practice law in all California State and some Federal courts.
