Bellevue College Board of Trustees, Tech CEO, Attorney, Former US Diplomat
Seattle, WA

I’m an attorney, former US diplomat, entrepreneur, and college Trustee committed to using innovation and good governance to improve lives. As CEO of Advocat AI, I led a legal tech company that used AI to transform how organizations manage contracts and compliance—making legal processes faster, clearer, and more accessible.

I care deeply about building systems that reduce barriers, ease anxiety, and expand access to opportunity. I believe our society is stronger when we invest in education, support startups and small businesses, protect people and the environment, and uphold ethical leadership in both public and private sectors.
