About

As the Director of Information Technology at First Legal, I lead transformative initiatives that modernize and scale IT operations across the litigation support lifecycle. With over 18 years of experience in the legal industry and a proven track record of building high-performance teams, I drive strategy at the intersection of operational efficiency, emerging technology, and service excellence. I’ve led First Legal’s IT growth from a 3-person team to a department of 20+, implementing best practices across infrastructure, security, DevOps, data, and application architecture. My leadership was pivotal in the successful acquisition of First Legal by Aurora Capital, and I now focus on executing high-ROI, long-term technology investments that align with private equity priorities and support future exits. I am an MIT-certified CTO (via the MIT Professional Education program) and an active member of the International Legal Technology Association (ILTA), the Global CTO Forum, and a proud supporter of the We Defy Foundation, reflecting my commitment to leadership, service, and continuous learning. I’m passionate about innovating in human-centric ways, augmenting litigation workflows with scalable technology, and developing future-ready teams prepared for the next phase of digital transformation.
