Experienced legal document review and project manager specializing in litigation support.
What I'm looking for
I am a seasoned legal professional with extensive experience in document review, privilege analysis, privilege log creation, redaction, and project management for large-scale litigation matters across industries including antitrust, environmental, automotive defect, and corporate fraud. I have led review teams, managed productions, implemented review workflows, and saved costs through process and technology improvements while supporting hire counsel and in-house teams.
I combine litigation-focused legal analysis with hands-on project leadership, bar tutoring, and adjunct teaching experience. My career highlights include managing high-volume review projects for major firms and clients, creating privilege logs and advanced redaction protocols, and implementing litigation software that produced significant savings.
