As a child in Ukraine, I dreamed I’d create a stunning art portfolio, graduate 8th grade, and leap from vocational art school to a career in fine art. Science, math, and history—who needed them when university costs were too high? My engineer parents were supportive but wary. At age 13, we moved to Candy Land (the San Franciso Bay Area and Silicon Valley). There I learned that technology can artfully lead to beautiful and functional results when promoting the rule of law. Today, law + tech = a lifelong career of embracing change, running toward risk, enhancing work/life balance, and transforming the practice of law. I’m always writing the next chapter in the Big Book of Legal Transformation focused on the technology trends shaping our legal future. I advocate for innovation the way true tech geeks do: with unbridled enthusiasm. I’ve led through transitions and tech transformations in BigLaw firms, Fortune 500 legal departments, and countless pre-IPO startups, teaming up with the latest technologies (e.g., SaaS, data analytics, AI, ML, blockchain, crypto, and Web3) before they earned their buzz. And when the next shot of tech disruption arrives, I’ll be ready to add my fun twist to the mix. The rule of law is integral to how we and our governments, organizations, and households prosper. My belief that law should benefit every individual, every day, seamlessly drives me to: 🖼️ Craft a universal language of law that speaks to all communities. Let’s use practical design and visual elements to explain abstract legal concepts. “Legalese” is like spaghetti code, a mess of mish tangled in the mash. As a young immigrant to the US, challenges speaking broken English showed me how valuable a shared language is for promoting unity through mutual understanding. ⚖️ Enable “law as a service for all” using technology to solve issues of access and affordability. I’m like a kid in a candy shop hollering, “More legal innovation, please!” Let’s wield tech like a magic wand to streamline well-structured processes and support human relationships to make the law more transparent and accessible to all. 💻 Bring the law up to pace with modern society. Law can no longer tick along like an old watch: expensive, clunky, and barely functional. Not when business pros can set a smart contract to self-execute on a blockchain and AI can increasingly automate mundane tasks. Using disruptive technologies, we will all flourish when our legal systems meet the needs of our times. Join me for our next adventure!
