The focus of my practice is on business and corporate law, having extensive experience assisting clients with business structuring, entity formation, mergers and acquisitions, corporate securities, equity incentive plans, and all types of commercial contracts.I was the primary drafter of Oregon Ballot Measure 91 and have a unique understanding of the business, corporate, and securities law challenges that cannabis businesses face. I was also the primary drafter of Oregon Initiative Petition 2020-034 (also known as the Oregon Psilocybin Services Act), which has qualified for the November 3, 2020 General Election ballot. Prior to co-founding Emerge Law Group, I was a shareholder at Schwabe, Williamson & Wyatt, P.C., Oregon’s second largest law firm. Previously, I also worked on-site at Intel Corporation where I drafted and negotiated numerous contracts and created several new legal document templates for complex business scenarios. For eight years, I was an adjunct professor at the University of Oregon School of Law, where I taught a mergers and acquisitions lab class.Outside the practice of law, I have engaged in a number of entrepreneurial ventures. I am the president and co-founder of ClayTablet, a company that provides legal document templates to Oregon and Washington attorneys. I also produced a documentary movie that won awards at several film festivals, and for several years designed and published a calendar that was carried in regional bookstores.
