Experience

Each role in three lines: what I did, what it changed, and the skills involved.

Legal Assistant & AI Integration

Princeton, NJ · June 2026 – present

Jaffe Glenn Law Group — employment class actions

What I did

Drafted discovery documents — requests for production, interrogatories, admissions — and civil complaints for New Jersey wage-and-hour class actions. Built reusable templates for recurring filings, automated client-intake workflows, and built an AI-agent pipeline that monitors federal court activity to source new cases.

Impact

Cut discovery-document turnaround time, removed repetitive data entry across active cases, and expanded the firm's case pipeline beyond what manual monitoring could reach.

Impact

Compressed a typically slow compliance timeline and gave the founding team a working regulatory process where none existed.
