Experience
VP, Legal
Dec 2025 — Present · Seattle, WA, US
Promoted to VP, Legal where I lead commercial legal strategy and serve as the primary legal partner to the go-to-market organization. In this role, I negotiate complex customer, partner, and strategic agreements while providing strategic legal counsel on privacy, regulatory compliance, and business initiatives. As an early adopter of AI-powered legal technology, I drive operational efficiency and accelerate deal cycles across commercial operations.
