About Sean

Exhibit A

My practice sits at the intersection of privacy law, cybersecurity, and emerging technology. Across BigLaw, a Big Tech secondment, and in-house counsel, I've built a reputation for translating dense regulatory frameworks — GDPR, CCPA, GLBA, ECPA — into practical guidance for teams building next-generation AI systems. (No objections so far.)
