About

I am a former federal prosecutor specializing in white collar criminal defense, government and internal investigations, cybersecurity response, national security inquiries and sanctions compliance. Among other things, I advise on criminal, regulatory and complex civil matters related to cross-border regulations, trade secrets and intellectual property theft, cryptocurrency and artificial intelligence, anti-money laundering (AML) obligations, and securities regulations.

I previously worked at the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Eastern District of New York, where I served in a number of leadership positions, including as deputy chief of the National Security and Cybercrime Section. I have relationships and experience with, among others, the Department of Justice’s National Security Division and Computer Crimes Section; the Treasury Department’s Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC); and the Department of Commerce’s Bureau of Industry and Security (BIS).
