About me

I'm excited to be a part of the Legal and Community Advocacy team this summer as a Legal Intern. I've been a dedicated user of Wikimedia projects for quite some time, but I hope to use this summer to become a more active contributor to the community. I'm interested in exploring the intersections of law, technology, and education.

I completed my undergraduate work at Stanford University and I'm currently a student at Harvard Law School.

My work

In my role, I support the Office of the General Counsel as we address all legal matters related to the Foundation and its projects.

Disclaimer: I work for or provide services to the Wikimedia Foundation, and this is the account I try to use for edits or statements I make in that role. However, the Foundation does not vet all my activity, so edits, statements, or other contributions made by this account may not reflect the views of the Foundation. The legal team can only represent the Wikimedia Foundation on legal matters, so we are unable to give legal advice to others, including community members, editors, or contributors. Communications with members of the legal team are not consultations and do not create any confidential relationship.
