/My focus

I focus on legal work related to deal transactions, particularly in the healthcare sector. My practice centers on mergers and acquisitions involving large healthcare providers and entities, as well as joint ventures and strategic partnerships. I have experience drafting agreements, including asset purchase agreements, non-disclosure agreements, professional service agreements, settlement and release agreements, business associate agreements, and memoranda of understanding. I also handle various contract amendments to support evolving business needs.

In addition to my legal practice, I have a background in public health research, with a focus on health disparities, access to care, and the role of telehealth. My work explores how these issues intersect with the evolving political landscape and the corporate practice of medicine, providing me with a broader perspective on the challenges and opportunities facing the healthcare industry today.

/Looking ahead

I expect that the evolving political climate and continuing development of new technologies—especially from AI-driven diagnostics and remote monitoring platforms—will lead to a shift in collaboration and provider services between healthcare providers and other healthcare entities. As local state and federal agencies provide a tailored focus on California-specific issues, I anticipate a need to balance the approaches of California and other states with different aspects of healthcare law, including Medicare, Medicaid, corporate practice of medicine, and the evolution of medicine.
