What I'm looking for

I’m looking for an attorney role focused on commercial litigation where I can research deeply, write clearly, and manage multiple matters effectively—while continuing to grow my skills in litigation strategy and policy-informed analysis.

I’m an attorney with experience managing competing priorities, distilling complex information, and communicating clearly with clients and internal teams. I’ve focused on litigation work while building the ability to quickly learn new industries and client objectives.

At Sidley Austin LLP, I drafted motions, briefs, discovery materials, and client communications for commercial litigation matters. I research legal issues, synthesize case law and factual records into concise analyses, and help support litigation strategy under tight timelines.

Before practicing, I supported DOJ policy analysis through legal research on emerging federal court decisions and reviewed enforcement actions to identify trends. I also bring communications expertise—from managing LinkedIn/X/Facebook and creating digital content with Mailchimp, Canva, and Adobe Creative Suite to developing patient education and outreach content—complementing my legal background with strong writing and messaging skills.
