About |
I am a perpetually curious public policy consultant, attorney, fitness enthusiast, mother and world-traveler. You’ll likely find me meeting with people in DC, writing policy and advocacy documents, speaking at conferences, building coalitions, or listening to TedTalks podcasts at the gym. I strive to be a problem solver and am a classic ENTJ.
Clients hire me for my ability to identify the problem, evaluate their business and policy options, craft a plan, and implement that plan in what are often complex domestic and international policy environments.
I am a Principal at Faegre Baker Daniels Consulting, Counsel at Faegre Baker Daniels LLP, and advisor to the Alliance for Safe Online Pharmacies - Global (ASOP Global), the Coalition for a Secure and Transparent Internet, and other clients. I’m a proud graduate of Indiana University - Bloomington and Indiana University Maurer School of Law.

As I wrote in December 2015, some Internet commerce companies - including domain name registries, registrars, advertising providers, social media platforms, payment processors and shippers - are doing right by patients in taking voluntary action against illegal online drug sellers. This is no small feat as 97% of the roughly 35,000 active online drug sellers are operating illegally. more
Domain name registration is a hot industry. Registrars represent a growing multi-billion dollar industry with the keys to the Internet for any organization hoping to have a web presence. Further, because of their role as one of the gatekeepers to the Internet, registrars have the unique ability and are often asked to take action against illegal activity online. This fact was highlighted in the report released this week by the Office of the U.S. Trade Representative, the 2015 Out-of-Cycle Notorious Markets List. more
