Communications Virtuosity.
If one word were to sum up my purpose, it is “advocacy.” I have spent every moment of my professional career gathering facts, using those facts to develop positions, and effectively communicating a final point of view. Here is an inexhaustive list of my career highlights:

Representing the United States at the Convention on Certain Conventional Weapons Conference at the United Nations in Geneva, Switzerland
Podcasting weekly on cutting-edge issues for the American Bar Association Standing Committee on Law and National Security’s “National Security Law Today” with my terrific cohostesses
Editing and coordinating talking points on civilian casualties to guide the Secretary of Defense in meetings with Doctors Without Borders following a tragic fatal accident
Briefing leaders at the Department of Defense to convince them to support controversial draft legislation that would advance international humanitarian objectives
Drafting and delivering testimony on behalf of Airbnb and hosts agitating for property rights at the District of Columbia Zoning Commission and being quoted in the Washington Post
Teaching an undergraduate seminar on Organized Crime as an Adjunct Professor at American University
