About
Professional profile
Legal education combined with technical experience
I recently completed a J.D. and Tax LL.M. at LMU Loyola Law School. My legal education focused on tax-related issues, legal research, legal writing, and the analysis of business and regulatory matters.
During law school, I served as a staff member of the Loyola of Los Angeles Law Review and as Secretary of the Tax Law Society. I also worked as a law clerk at the IRS as part of the Loyola IRS Small Case Tax Clinic.
Before and during law school, I developed professional experience in software engineering and software quality assurance at Mercury Insurance. That work included backend development, enterprise testing, vulnerability remediation, and software systems supporting insurance products across multiple states and lines of business.
My academic background also includes an M.A. in Mathematics from California State University, Fullerton and a B.A. in Applied Mathematics from the University of California, Berkeley.
