    I have a varied background in legal matters, writing, real estate, construction and general business matters. Over the past decade I primarily worked in highly regulated industries such as cannabis, either as a consultant or minority partner. I was previously a big-firm attorney and went to one of the best law schools in the country, where I was an honors grad and a law clerk at the Tennessee Supreme Court. I also spent 1.5 years working as a case study associate at the Vanderbilt Institute for Public Policy Studies. I have expertise in real property title / zoning and corporate experience including development, leasing, water and mineral rights, corporate filings of every variety, and general contracts. I can handle complicated projects at a high level, and manage ongoing projects such as corporate or real estate filings with the appropriate attention to detail while also being fast. I can help non-US citizens set up companies in the US and in some cases act as a nominee director. I can help as a paralegal with high-level background support on any kind of litigation projects, be it one-offs or ongoing complex disputes. Any projects that require professional level writing are also in my wheelhouse. My undergraduate degree was in Writing and I was (i) an editor and writer for the University of Colorado - Denver newspaper, (ii) an articles editor of the Vanderbilt Law Review, and (iii) published law review author. In my professional career I have written articles with a legal focus and also white papers presented to local and state governments considering cannabis regulations and policies. I was the lead researcher and writer (on a volunteer basis) in a two-year effort successfully lobbying the State of Colorado to change its healthcare insurance "mandatory coverages" to include children with autism spectrum disorders. I have written pitch decks, marketing content and trade articles, process / SOP manuals, and complex regulatory applications that required up to 1,000 pages of content. I also have a technical construction background and have been the project manager on a number of cannabis industry development and building projects in multiple states, and have in the past decade been a licensed GC and ICC-certified commercial plans examiner. On a personal note, I've been involved in various non-profits in my adult life and generally they skew towards issues involving underprivileged kids or disabled kids. I was the pro bono counsel, Vice-President then later President, of the Autism Society of Colorado. I have been a youth mentor with various programs including Big Brothers & Big Sisters and similar organizations.

    I'm a writer and editor with sharp eyes, sharp instincts, and an affection for precision. Currently, I work as a Legislative Editor, refining legal content for the Colorado General Assembly. My background spans legal editing, academic writing, and collaborative consultation.

I specialize in Chicago Manual and APA styles, but more than that: I specialize in making complicated information readable, and readable information compelling. I pride myself on integrity. I will never use AI to write or edit for you; you're getting my personal taste and expertise when we work together.

    Hello, I’m a seasoned attorney with over 35 years of legal experience, dedicated to helping businesses navigate complex legal landscapes with clarity and confidence. Based in the United States, I’ve advised startups, growing enterprises, and established corporations across a wide range of industries, offering strategic legal support that protects value and drives growth. My practice focuses on more than resolving legal issues it’s about building strong legal foundations that support long-term success. Whether you’re launching a new venture, entering a key transaction, or managing risk at scale, I deliver clear, actionable advice aligned with your business goals. Transactional Law and Deal Structuring I specialise in structuring and negotiating business transactions that unlock growth opportunities. From mergers and acquisitions to joint ventures and commercial agreements, I bring precision and foresight to every deal. I’ve supported tech companies through multimillion-dollar funding rounds, crafted shareholder agreements that balance governance and growth, and negotiated complex distribution and licensing arrangements that safeguard profitability. Corporate Governance and Strategic Advisory Strong corporate governance is essential to a company’s resilience. I advise boards, executives, and business owners on governance frameworks, compliance strategies, and internal policies that foster trust and accountability. From designing adaptable bylaws to guiding succession planning, I help clients build legal infrastructures that support strategic decision-making and sustainable expansion. Intellectual Property Integration In today’s innovation-driven economy, intellectual property is often a company’s most valuable asset. I integrate IP protection into broader business strategies — conducting IP due diligence during M&A, negotiating licensing and royalty agreements, and advising on trademark and patent protection. For example, I helped a tech company increase its acquisition valuation by $2M by ensuring its IP portfolio was free from infringement risk. Dispute Resolution and Risk Management When disputes arise — whether between partners, shareholders, or external parties — I help clients resolve them efficiently and constructively. I prioritise negotiation and mediation to preserve relationships and avoid costly litigation. When court action is necessary, I bring decades of advocacy experience to bear, protecting my clients’ interests with focus and resolve. If your business needs seasoned legal counsel grounded in practical experience and strategic thinking, I’m here to help. Let’s work together to turn legal complexity into opportunity.

    I’m a self-taught Python developer with a professional background in legal operations, regulatory compliance, and business administration. After running multiple companies in the pharmaceutical and cannabis sectors — where I handled everything from legal documentation to internal workflow systems — I saw firsthand how much time is wasted on repetitive tasks that can be automated. Now, I use Python to streamline the kinds of operational challenges I’ve spent years solving manually: parsing documents, cleaning data, generating reports, automating legal workflows, and connecting systems with APIs. Alongside my development work, I bring deep experience in drafting contracts, managing regulatory filings, preparing SOPs and licensing documents, and organizing high-volume digital documentation systems. My dual strength in tech automation and compliance-focused documentation makes me a valuable partner for teams looking to boost accuracy, consistency, and efficiency in their operations. I recently completed a 20-hour Python 3 certification course through Codecademy and am actively building tools and taking on freelance projects that combine code with compliance, business processes, and AI. My current toolkit includes: • Python, Pandas, OpenPyXL, PDF automation • Web scraping (BeautifulSoup, Requests) • API integration and automation scripting • AI-enhanced tools using OpenAI (GPT) I’m especially interested in collaborating on: • Automation of document-heavy workflows (legal, HR, compliance) • Small business tools and back-office systems • AI-assisted document summarization or generation • Remote Python projects with flexible hours Whether you’re looking to speed up your business processes, build a smarter workflow, or connect systems more efficiently, I’d love to connect.
