As a North County San Diego native with a passion for social impact, I am dedicated to supporting businesses in their growth, with a particular focus on California benefit corporations.
Combining Business Acumen with Legal Expertise
My journey began with a business administration degree from Cal Poly San Luis Obispo, where I honed my understanding of business through a marketing concentration. I transitioned to law after a decade in sales and marketing, graduating from California Western School of Law in 2013 and passing the bar exam the same year. Since then, I have built a successful law practice with a diverse group of long-term clients.
Drafting Contracts for Impact
Drafting contracts for businesses today requires a nuanced approach. I excel at balancing liability protection with business goals and philosophies. I take pride in drafting, revising, and negotiating contracts that reflect a company's values and empower its positive impact journey.
Beyond Benefit Corporations: A Well-Rounded Practice
While my focus is on benefit corporations, I provide comprehensive legal services across many different types of entities. Whether a traditional corporation, a limited liability company, or an entrepreneur exploring the best business structure, I address legal requirements and help achieve business objectives. My goal is for all clients to receive tailored and effective legal support throughout their entrepreneurial journey.
Entrepreneurial Insight and Experience
Having built and sustained a successful law practice, I possess firsthand knowledge of the challenges and responsibilities faced by entrepreneurs. This experience allows me to connect with companies and provide practical, empathetic legal counsel. With the legal landscape constantly changing, I offer flexible and forward-thinking legal solutions that adapt to a company's evolving needs. I collaborate closely with clients to act as strategic legal support, helping them achieve their vision and goals.
Championing Positive Change
Giving back is a core value. I actively participate in and contribute to the community through various organizations and initiatives. This involvement has exposed me to the power of businesses to create positive social and environmental impact, fueling my passion for supporting benefit corporations that strive to make a difference.
