My background includes in-house counsel roles at Shell, FET, and Emerson, where I’ve supported complex commercial transactions, regulatory compliance, HR, marketing, M&A, and strategic initiatives in the energy sector just to name a few. I earned my J.D. and MBA from Texas Tech University School of Law in 2014. My undergraduate degree is in Entrepreneurship from the University of Houston. I’m known for being a pragmatic legal partner—someone who understands the business and helps teams navigate legal risks while enabling innovation and growth.I’m passionate about building collaborative relationships across departments and contributing to a culture of integrity and forward-thinking.
