About
My professional roots lie in Silicon Valley, where I represented numerous startup and established companies as an associate at the WSGR law firm (4+ yrs), focusing on IP, transactional, licensing and tech matters. I continued my career in Southern California by working in-house at Univision (2+ yrs), eHarmony (5+ yrs) and ReachLocal (1+ yr), where I honed my skills in additional areas such as privacy, product development, risk management, regulatory compliance and marketing.

My practice focuses on getting my clients the most out of any deal while containing inherent risks to acceptable levels. I live (and work) in the heart of Los Angeles'… read more 'Silicon Beach' area with my wife and two girls.
