Her legal career began before law school where she worked at two Houston law firms as a legal assistant and dreamt of becoming an international law attorney. During law school, she took several international law classes and participated in mock international arbitration and litigation competitions. Her career took off in Dallas beginning at a small firm where she quickly learned how to build strong client relationships and advocacy skills, which paved the way for her later roles as counsel for the government and domestic and international companies. Over her career, she was fortunate to have many opportunities to expand her legal knowledge and skills and gained invaluable experience in a multitude of practice areas including bankruptcy, civil and criminal litigation, data protection and privacy, incident response, employment, mergers and acquisitions, corporate compliance, and technology. While working as in-house counsel, she had the opportunity to realize her dream of practicing international law by leading the post-acquisition integration of a Brazilian subsidiary. She credits her multicultural heritage as the secret sauce that allowed her to successfully win the trust of her new Brazilian colleagues while going through a very thorough internal FCPA inquiry.
