About me

I recently completed my first year of law school at the Georgetown University Law Center, and I am curious about the privacy and intellectual property laws that govern the digital age. In particular, I am interested in legal questions about technology that regulators have yet to fully explore. To that end, I also co-wrote a paper discussing the regulatory implications of Internet Exchange Points. My interest in these issues began during my time interning for Google's public policy team and continued during internships at the Application Developers Alliance and then at the Center for Democracy & Technology. Outside of my interest in technology law, I am always excited to try a new food truck or hear some new stand-up.

My work

I support the legal team by producing research and legal writing to assist its attorneys in their broader legal projects.
