about me
I am a US qualified attorney admitted to the New York Bar as of 2004. I have worked as legal counsel for a global software company, a legal consultant for a leading telecommunications firm and a policy advisor for a European non-profit organization.
I am an alumni of the Salzburg Global Seminar and participated in the Young Leaders Summit of 2007. I am very interested in global politics and policy, to this end I participate in a number of projects to raise awareness and promote debate on a range of topics.
I am always interested in exploring new opportunities be they commercial or political.
