About me

I am a third year law student from Santa Clara University. I will be spending my last semester of law school working full time as a Legal Intern at the Wikimedia Foundation. I am excited by many things, including internet freedom, spearfishing, traveling to tropical countries to spearfish and drinking a beer or two in said tropical countries.

My work

As a Legal Intern, I work directly under Legal Counsel on a wide array of matters - really wherever I can be of help. I am most interested in contracts, intellectual property, international law, licensing, and privacy. For legal and ethical reasons I am not qualified to provide legal advice to anyone in any jurisdiction.
