Backstory
We are small but mighty and we regularly punch above our weight class. My team covers a lot of ground across nearly every legal and compliance specialty. We pride ourselves on doing it with a smile on our faces and a healthy dose of good humor. Above all, we act with integrity and an eye towards making our colleagues’ lives easier wherever possible.
Lessens Learned
Personally and professionally, I’ve always experienced the most satisfaction in environments where I am challenged to constantly grow and improve in some way. Complacency is boring and commonplace. That’s why I’ve built my business law career in the tech sector where I have the privilege to guide and advise our teams on emerging technologies at the intersection of a regulated industry. Enabling our business to take calculated, strategic risks amidst complex legal landscapes—while allowing Lessen to boldly pursue its vision—provides me an incredibly fulfilling and rewarding role.
