About meBefore joining the Wikimedia Foundation, I taught E-Commerce Law and Information Privacy Law at California Western School of Law and worked with Internet law and digital rights as a Google Policy Fellow at the Electronic Frontier Foundation and a Summer Academic Fellow at Harvard Law School. I have also worked with public and business law in private practice. I have an LL.M. from Harvard Law School, a J.D. from University of Southern California, and an LL.B. from the London School of Economics. I am licensed to practice law in California and New York. I am also a junior affiliate scholar at the Stanford Center for Internet & Society and regularly speak at conferences and publish on Internet law issues. When I'm not lawyering, I love to travel, hike, cook, paint, and explore everything design. |
My workI focus on Wikipedia Zero, trademarks, privacy, copyright, and various other matters that arise out of running all the wonderful Wikimedia projects.Disclaimer: Although I work for the Wikimedia Foundation, contributions under this account do not necessarily represent the actions or views of the Foundation unless expressly stated otherwise.
