Privacy litigation & compliance.
J.D., Washington University in St. Louis School of Law · B.A., UC Berkeley · CIPP/US · Awaiting NY bar results.
I keep my working notes in the open. This is a personal notebook on privacy litigation and the procedure that surrounds it — written as I learn it, revised as I learn more, and marked so you can tell a first draft from a settled one. Nothing here is legal advice, and every legal claim is checked against primary sources before I mark it verified.
