I am an attorney, CPA, and software engineer helping entrepreneurs start, grow, manage, and exit their ventures. In addition to my law practice, I also teach Business Law to undergraduates at Florida Gulf Coast University. I have served in operations and finance with the world’s largest accounting firm, airline, and bank. I chose to pivot to pursue law as my next profession and am admitted to The Florida Bar and the State Bar of Texas. I completed my Juris Doctor on full tuition merit scholarship. While in law school, I served on the Law Review Editorial Board where my monograph—Transhumanism: Morality and Law at the Frontier of the Human Condition—was selected for publication. I passed the Florida Bar Examination in July 2022 and the Texas Bar Examination in February 2023. Following my J.D., I completed the Real Property Development LL.M. program at the University of Miami School of Law. I hold active CPA licensure in Florida and Texas and undergraduate and graduate degrees in accounting and taxation, respectively, from Southern Methodist University in Dallas. Before my career in law, I developed business intelligence and reporting on commercial banking clients in the Dallas and Chicago offices at JPMorgan across a variety of industry verticals—with a special emphasis on FIG and CRE clients. Previously, I supported capital investment decision-making and financial reporting for the commercial real estate, security, and legal divisions at American Airlines at their headquarters in Fort Worth. Prior to that, I founded Food on the Fly, a data mining and logistics startup leveraging mobile connectivity and transactional analytics to deliver premium meals in-terminal to transiting, time-constrained air travelers. My work on this venture continues. Before making the jump to the entrepreneurial realm, I began my career in the private equity and financial services tax compliance and consulting practice (“SALT-FS”) at PricewaterhouseCoopers in their Dallas office where I engineered solutions to more effectively serve VC/PE clients including Texas Pacific Group, Goldman Sachs, and others. I also hold the Certified Management Accountant, Certified Internal Auditor, Forensic Certified Public Accountant, Certified Information Systems Auditor, Certification in Risk Management Assurance, and Certified Fraud Examiner credentials. In my spare time, I explore the taxation and novel applications of virtual assets. I also serve as a mentor for university-age creators. I divide my time between sunny South Florida and Dallas, Texas.
