What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a role where I can be a strategic legal partner—owning cross-border litigation, compliance, and risk—while scaling legal processes through data-driven legal operations and partnering closely with business and leadership.

I’m a business-oriented legal counsel with 9+ years of experience supporting high-growth and multinational environments across consulting and tech. Currently, I serve as an Associate Manager at Accenture, advising complex, cross-border operations across the Americas in litigation, compliance, and risk management.

I act as a strategic partner to business and operational stakeholders, leading cross-border dispute strategy and risk assessment, advising on contracting and operational risk, and collaborating with global teams to keep legal standards consistent. Previously, as Senior Lawyer in Government Relations at Indrive, I structured licensing and regulatory frameworks supporting expansion into 20+ cities and represented the company before government authorities and regulatory bodies; earlier, as a mid-senior associate/coordinator at Miguez & Florentino, I managed 300+ cases, led complex negotiations for commercial and real estate agreements, and improved delivery efficiency by 15%. I also strengthen legal operations by co-developing an automated PowerApps system for subpoena management and leveraging Microsoft Copilot to enhance legal analytics and decision-making support.
