Social Media Manager

Head of Marketing at SparkPlug⚡️AI Marketing Advocate

I help legal professionals adopt AI in a practical and secure way.

With over 15 years in tech and a focus on AI workflows, I work with law firms, in-house counsel, and legal operations teams to build custom AI solutions that improve efficiency. From automating routine tasks to enhancing document review, I translate complex AI capabilities into clear, usable workflows that legal teams can actually implement.

My journey into AI began when I helped launch one of the first micro-tools built with the OpenAI API, an AI email writer created before ChatGPT existed. Since then, I have led AI strategy at SaaS companies, trained teams on AI adoption, and implemented AI-driven systems.

I hold a certification from MIT in Artificial Intelligence for Business. My specialties include:
	•	AI workflow development for legal teams
	•	Prompt engineering for legal use cases
	•	AI training and enablement for internal teams
	•	AI tool audits and evaluations
	•	Aligning AI adoption with privacy, security, and compliance standards

Whether you’re exploring legal AI tools, automating intake, or building a knowledge assistant, I help legal teams implement AI in a way that is strategic, ethical, and aligned with business outcomes.

If you’re exploring AI for your firm or legal department, I’d be happy to connect and share ideas.


This week felt like watching the training wheels come off. 🚴🏻‍♀️

For a long while now, legal AI has been about experimentation and pilot programs. What I’m seeing shift is that AI companies are truly building for how legal work actually gets done, not just what sounds impressive in a demo.

The tools aren't just getting better, they're getting easier to deploy. Funding is happening left and right. And agentic AI? It's about to be everywhere.

Five main things caught my attention:

💰 GC AI raised a $60M Series B round. I'm proud to have been involved in their early growth as the Founding Marketer. Looking forward to seeing them continue to scale!

🤑 Clio raised $500M (largest legal tech round ever!) following its $1B vLex acquisition. Institutional investors are betting that AI-powered legal operations are the future.

🔍 OmniLex raised $4.5M for improved legal research and NLPatent secured $3M for agentic patent workflows.

⚙️ Alexi launched 74+ pre-built AI automations for contract review, due diligence, discovery, and risk assessments. Ready day one.

🤖 Thomson Reuters unveiled agentic workflows in CoCounsel that independently execute multi-step tasks and handle bulk review of up to 10,000 documents (minimal human intervention required).

You can swipe through the carousel for the full breakdown, or catch the deep dive in yesterday's Legal AI Insider newsletter on my profile with more news items.

PS: 🗓️ I'm hosting a webinar next week on 𝟮𝟬 𝗣𝗿𝗮𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗰𝗮𝗹 𝗟𝗲𝗴𝗮𝗹 𝗔𝗜 𝗨𝘀𝗲 𝗖𝗮𝘀𝗲𝘀 because I want to keep helping legal professionals figure out what actually works. Real examples you can use in your work. Send me a message and I'll save you a spot.

DO: hire an agency when you prioritize PR as a key business driver. 

This is the way ✊

💥 Just downloaded Muck Rack’s “What is AI Reading?” report. 

If you’re in comms, you need these insights. 👇

😮 Non-paid media accounts for 94% of links cited by AI

😮 82% of links cited by LLMs come from *earned media*

In other words, PR isn’t a nice to have in the age of AI. 

It’s a straight-up performance channel. 

Vroom vroom
