Working for a fast growing, independent, global, institutional brokerage and investment-banking firm in the Regulatory Affairs Compliance group, and responding to regulatory inquiries from the SEC, FINRA, and various other securities regulators, as well as assisting on routine regulatory exams. Though the regulatory inquiries I respond to are not limited to any one type, these inquiries most commonly focus on equity, fixed income, and options trading, especially market making, best execution, Regulation NMS, short sales, trade reporting, mark-ups/commissions, manipulation, and anti-money laundering.

Applied legal skills and technical knowledge in assisting both the corporate and litigation departments. Worked on projects for high-growth, early-stage businesses and active investors in connection with incorporations, equity financings, securities, mergers and acquisitions, and general corporate counseling. Researched and worked closely with registered securities offerings, PIPEs, SEC regulations, ’33 Act Registration Statements, and ’34 Act periodic filings. Garnered in depth knowledge on the regulatory requirements and compliance issues surrounding securities and corporate law.

During my time as a Paralegal with Judd Burstein P.C. I garnered experience with all aspects of legal writing, editing, and filing, handling in-person filings with various state and federal court systems, as well as e-filings with PACER and ECF. As a Legal Assistant, I handled office managerial tasks such as ensuring that supplies were well stocked so that a shortage could never hinder our filing deadlines. When multiple Legal Secretary positions opened, I was entrusted to be the front person for finding, onboarding, and managing new hires. Lastly, I oversaw and helped manage an office move when the changing office culture brought on by the pandemic necessitated different operational requirements than our current space could provide.

As assistant manager at Greenwich Bicycles' flagship store I learned everything required to run a shop, from basic bike maintenance, to analyzing product information and reports. After sufficiently studying and showing proficiency in the duties required, I moved into the role of full-time manager at our second location.

As the District Assistant at the Bozeman Daily Chronicle, I worked within the distribution department in an administrative capacity.

In congruence with these tasks, I also worked to boost circulation and attract more potential customers.
