Bio:	Over my career, I have worked at a well-regarded corporate law firm, for a state attorney general, and as a judicial law clerk. I was privileged to begin my career with a one-year clerkship at the Texas Supreme Court, which is Texas's highest court for civil cases. Law clerks help the Court evaluate which of the roughly one thousand petitions filed each year should be granted and also help the Justices write their ultimate opinions. After that, I worked as a litigator for Wachtell, Lipton, Rosen Katz, a prominent New York law firm. While at Wachtell, I worked on a variety of high-stakes commercial disputes. The cases involved complex questions of contract law, insurance coverage, business torts, securities fraud, bankruptcy, antitrust law, and federal regulatory investigations. I was a member of the trial team inIBP, Inc. v. Tyson Foods, a landmark merger case in the Delaware Court of Chancery, and I also worked on the property-insurance lawsuit filed to help rebuild the World Trade Center. Because of my background in technology, I enjoyed my cases involving internet domain names, trademark law, and copyright. In 2003, I returned to Texas to serve in the Office of Solicitor in the Texas Office of the Attorney General, which handles the States most significant appellate cases and offers younger attorneys the chance to step up as lead counsel on their own docket of cases -- an opportunity rare in large firms.
