Atheria Law was founded in 2019 by eight partners who had worked together for many years through several law firms, most recently at global firm Clyde & Co. I joined the team at Clyde & Co in 2015 and was promoted to senior counsel in 2019. I left Clyde & Co to be part of the founding team at Atheria and was excited to see what new opportunities would be in store. Long story short, I've been with working with my current team and exclusively representing insurers in connection with complex cyber and technology risks since 2015. I was promoted to partner in February 2022.
