Turning legal expertise into revenue-generating opportunity.
Business development in a law firm is not just about visibility. It is about helping attorneys identify opportunities, clarify positioning, deepen client relationships, and move the right prospects toward action.
Expertise has to be positioned before it can create opportunity.
Attorneys are trained to think in nuance, precedent, risk, and precision. Those qualities are essential to excellent legal work. But before a client can value that expertise, the client has to understand the stakes, the path forward, and why a particular attorney or practice group is the right partner.
Client opportunities need clarity.
Strong business development translates sophisticated legal knowledge into practical positioning that helps clients understand what matters and why the firm is relevant now.
Visibility only matters when it builds trust.
Thought leadership, legal updates, webinars, bios, representative work, and collateral should make attorney judgment more visible, useful, and market-ready.
Revenue growth is a system.
Business plans, client targeting, event follow-up, website updates, pitches, RFPs, and stakeholder coordination all work together to create momentum.
The strongest business development support does more than produce materials. It helps attorneys stay visible, relevant, prepared, and connected to the clients, referral sources, and industries they serve.
It requires strong writing, sound judgment, attention to detail, and the ability to coordinate attorneys, marketing colleagues, administrative teams, vendors, and leadership without losing sight of the client opportunity.
That is the mindset I bring: practical, polished, responsive, and focused on helping practice groups turn expertise into relationships, trust, revenue opportunities, and growth.
Built for the operating system behind practice growth.
A Business Development Manager role requires someone who can move between strategy and execution: supporting business plans, identifying client opportunities, developing key messaging, managing marketing communications, coordinating events and webinars, maintaining collateral, and contributing to RFPs and pitches.
Practice group strategy
Comfortable working with attorneys, committees, leadership, and professional stakeholders to clarify priorities, organize information, develop messaging, and keep initiatives moving.

Experienced creating content, messaging, professional credibility tools, and visibility systems that help legal expertise become more relevant and actionable to external audiences.
Events, webinars, and visibility
Led planning and execution for national meetings, attorney-facing programs, webinars, seminars, vendor coordination, speaker support, and post-event follow-up.
RFP, pitch, and collateral support
Compiled organizational descriptions, attorney-related information, professional credentials, experience summaries, supporting documentation, and polished business development materials.
Legal-sector experience with business development discipline.
My background is not limited to marketing output. It includes the underlying coordination, judgment, data discipline, and follow-through that make attorneys easier to support and business development initiatives easier to execute.
Attorney support and legal marketing leadership
Served as the primary communications, accreditation, membership, and business development leader for a national legal certification organization serving attorneys in professional liability law.
Clear positioning from complex information
Translated legal, certification, accreditation, and stakeholder information into attorney-facing resources, website copy, newsletters, reports, event materials, and professional credibility tools.
Systems that protect follow-through
Built repeatable workflows for communications, stakeholder service, database management, event execution, committee support, reporting, information storage, and leadership updates.
Marketing with a relationship-building purpose
Supported partnerships, sponsorships, professional visibility, events, stakeholder engagement, and business development activity with the goal of strengthening credibility, connection, and opportunity creation.
A business development partner who understands that details create momentum.
In an attorney-led environment, trust is built through responsiveness, accuracy, discretion, and follow-through. I understand how to support senior stakeholders while keeping the work practical, organized, and on deadline.
I bring the ability to write clearly, coordinate across groups, manage competing requests, organize source content, support events and communications, and see how each task contributes to a larger business development goal.
