I joined Parker MacIntyre as an associate attorney in 2025. In my role, I represent investment advisers and broker-dealers in compliance, regulatory matters, investigations, mergers and acquisitions, and general business. I also provide guidance to issuers in private placements and securities offerings, including hedge fund formation, regulation, and compliance. I graduated from the University of Georgia School of Law in 2022. Since then, I have worked exclusively in private practice, representing clients in tax controversy matters, covering every stage from IRS examination to final resolution in Tax Court. Additionally, I have drafted and reviewed a wide range of contracts related to business formation, corporate governance, and liquidation. During my time at UGA, my interest in securities regulation was sparked by a Securities Regulation course, which led me to apply for an SEC internship. I spent my entire third year of law school interning full-time with the Commission. Before attending law school, I earned my Bachelor’s Degree in Business Administration and Management from the University of South Carolina. Although I left my hometown of Knoxville, Tennessee for my education, I remain a passionate Tennessee sports fan, much to the dismay of my colleagues at work, my law school classmates, and virtually everyone in my personal life. When I'm not in the office and the Vols aren’t playing, I can likely be found watching a movie with my fiancée, Cameron.
