When other little girls in Brooklyn were playing house, I was playing “office”. After seeing “E.T.” on the big screen as a child, my big brother and I wrote to Steven Spielberg on a piece of notebook paper: “Mr. Spielberg, you should replace the alligator on the [then wildly popular] Izod Polos with E.T.!”
Mu undergraduate days at NYU’s Music, Business & Technology program were amazing – I interned at Def Jam and took LL Cool J to his first interview at Rolling Stone! And I sang backup for my music theory professor’s rock band “The Last Generation”.
After that, I went to law school with dreams of becoming an entertainment lawyer. I was blessed enough to have landed an entry level associate position with a small entertainment and litigation firm out of law school. (I got a chance to represent Common – when he was still known as “Common Sense”).
I moved to Los Angeles in 2005 and got the chance to work at some amazing tech startups where I got bit hard by the “tech bug”. I developed my legal, business and creatives skills as in-house counsel at start-up and established companies such as Amp’d Mobile.
