About

Are you looking for a lawyer who doesn't view "risk" as a four-letter word?


All business opportunities come with some level of risk. The mission of legal counsel should be to help mitigate that risk -- not stomp it into nothingness, along with the potential opportunity.


My Background:


I've spent nearly all of my 30+ year career as a leader in high growth tech companies. Along the way I ran mergers & acquisitions for one of the largest wireless companies in the country. I was part of the deal team that completed the largest cash transaction in history. And I've done it all - from building desks to fetching beer for developers - to help a startup grow from barely an idea to being the dominant player in its industry. Over all of this, I've built a reputation for excellent legal judgment, keen decision-making, fearlessness, and business focus.


Selected Experience:


General Counsel, Avvo

General Counsel, RealSelf

General Counsel, Cellular One San Francisco

Vice President, Corporate Development, AT&T Wireless


Bar Membership:


Arizona, California, Washington


More About Me:


I live with my wife in Tucson, Arizona, but work with clients nationwide. I'm an avid cook, and enjoy all of the outdoor recreation that 300+ days of desert sunshine can offer. I also serve on the Board of Trustees of the Tucson Museum of Art and the Board of Directors of Responsive Law and the Public Participation Project.
