Skills & Approach
What I bring
to any matter
to any matter
Nearly two decades of practice at the intersection of litigation, policy, and strategy — built on consequential work, not abstract credentials.
Core capabilities
Litigation & enforcement
Trial and appellate practice in state and federal courts. Civil fraud investigation. Multi-party, high-exposure matters against well-resourced institutional adversaries. Built for complexity, not despite it.
Regulatory strategy
Federal supervision and enforcement architecture. Agency coordination across jurisdictions. Understanding of how regulatory decisions ripple across markets — and how to use that understanding as leverage.
Coalition leadership
Multistate investigations. Cross-sector partnerships. Building the coalitions that make accountability stick when no single actor has sufficient leverage alone.
Systems building
Rapid-response infrastructure. Supervision analytics. Tools that institutionalize enforcement capacity rather than depending on individual effort. Designed for scale, not just the next case.
Policy development
Industry guidance. Federal rulemaking. Legislative strategy. The ability to translate a legal theory into durable policy — and to understand the political constraints that determine whether a policy actually holds.
Strategic communications
Translating complex legal and policy work into clear public narrative. Using press and public accountability as enforcement tools, not afterthoughts.

How I work
"The problems worth solving don't respect disciplinary lanes — and the institutions causing harm are counting on advocates who stay in theirs."
I operate across litigation, regulatory strategy, coalition leadership, and policy not as separate services but as a single integrated approach. I find the leverage others missed, build something that outlasts the case, and don't mistake activity for accountability.
That skill set doesn't belong to any one subject matter. It travels.
If you're working on something where the stakes are real and the leverage hasn't been found yet — let's talk.
