Remote corporate paralegal delivering contract and compliance operations with legal-tech efficiency.
What I'm looking for
I’m a results-driven corporate paralegal and legal operations specialist, trained for high-stakes, metrics-driven environments. I specialize in streamlining legal workflows, managing rigid statutory deadlines, and drafting multi-jurisdictional documentation, including strict GDPR/data privacy compliance.
In my current role, I handle end-to-end case management for a 40+ active matter portfolio—conducting legal research, drafting pleadings and administrative appeals, and ensuring compliance with statutory and regulatory requirements. Previously, I supported government affairs and regulatory compliance by overseeing public funding administrative lifecycles and auditing program implementations, and I’ve also built operational discipline through KPI-driven work and SOP adherence in high-velocity environments.
