About

My practice focuses on cybersecurity, data privacy and employment. I advise multi-national clients on a wide range of privacy and data compliance issues, including identifying strategies for international data transfers, developing global data protection compliance programs, and conducting privacy impact assessments. I have particular experience in advising companies on compliance with global data protection laws including the EU General Data Protection Regulation. I also advise clients on cyber governance, incident management and data breach response, as well as on various U.S. laws such as the HIPAA/HITECH Act, the FTC Act, the GLBA, and COPPA.



I regularly counsel employers on issues concerning data protection that impact the workforce ranging from BYOD policies, employee background checks, employee monitoring, e-discovery and workplace investigations. Additionally, I have litigation and arbitration experience, particularly in employment-related matters. I have assisted clients in a variety of industries, such as health care, financial services, hospitality, manufacturing, retail, technology, automotive and marketing.



I am a regular speaker on international data privacy and protection and cyber-related issues.



I maintain a substantial pro bono practice. I represent client in collaboration with the Washington Legal Clinic for the Homeless, and co-chair the Jones Day Washington Office's Women's Group.



After law school, I served as a law clerk to Judge Thomas C. Wheeler of the U.S. Court of Federal Claims. Prior to joining Jones Day, I was a Japanese-language translator and interpreter in Japan.
