About
I provide strategic advice regarding global employment law functions related to non-competition, employee investigations, wage/hour compliance, union avoidance, workforce restructuring, independent contractor agreements, standing up operations and leading employment law compliance in new countries (Canada, APAC, EU, UK, New Zealand), responding to demand letters, and conducting detailed pay equity and disparate impact analyses.

I have significant experience in advising and leading Tech Teams on data privacy and cybersecurity, ensuring compliance with GDPR and CCPA, developing incident response plans, and preparing/negotiating data processing… read more agreements.

I have negotiated high-stakes deals with international distributors, overseeing the transition of go-to-market models through the drafting of distribution agreements, and asset purchase agreements.

I also negotiate and draft virtually every type of commercial contract, including SaaS and numerous vendor and manufacturing agreements.
