What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a role where I can own legal and business operations end-to-end, partner with cross-functional teams, and improve efficiency through clear process design and practical Legal Tech/automation—while strengthening compliance, contracts, and documentation.

I’m a Legal & Business Operations professional with 5+ years leading cross-functional legal, compliance, and operational workstreams for a B2B software company. I focus on contract lifecycle management, regulatory compliance across jurisdictions, and risk mitigation—while coordinating legal, finance, HR, and project stakeholders to keep delivery on track.

As an Operations Manager, I owned legal operations, regulatory program management (including public grant and incentive acquisition and audit-ready reporting), and operational efficiency end-to-end. I also strengthen documentation and governance with tools like Google Workspace, Microsoft OneDrive, Dropbox, and Notion, and I integrate AI/automation (Claude, Make/Integromat, Google Apps Script) to streamline repetitive work. Academically, I’m trained with an LLM in Business and Corporate Law and I have an academic/personal interest in Legal Tech, including blockchain and intellectual property.
