The first time I met Finn was when we were working on a demo for a highly promising and world-wide known company and only having 4 days to build it from scratch. I was instantly amazed how great of a team player Finn is and how easily we understood each other. It was true collaboration and that is one of the best traits that Finn has that I deeply value. The start-up environment is a really fast paced world where decisions can be made, changed and revisited a few times a day, especially when on a tight deadline, and Finn’s positive attitude, agility, intellect, knowledge and drive can not be underrated. To balance this, Finn is extremely thorough when it comes to analysis, research and making decisions about the law, legality, contracts and clauses. His ability to work long and effective hours is fascinating, as he can juggle quite a load! I am grateful for having the opportunity to work with Finn and am looking forward to more collaboration in the future.

If Finn were summarized in one word, it would be passion. Never engaging with anything unless he’s fully committed to seeing it through, he consistently delivers high-quality work. Always up for a challenge, his infectiously positive attitude and adaptable intellect let him anticipate problems to ensure projects remain on-track. Between researching corner-case law, mocking up UI elements, or scripting & filming educational videos, he’s a man of many talents. Finn is frequently the first-mover into untested waters, and his passion for justice makes him more than willing to help comrades fight back sharks on their way to shore. An honest and empathetic guy, Finn is dedicated to the success of both his clientele and every member of his team. I can’t imagine a more suitable personality for legal counsel, and give him a hearty recommendation.

      I have undertaken several projects while at UCSC's Human Rights Lab. I identified and cataloged militia and anti-government groups in critical states for the 2022 midterm election. I identified and analyzed the online and physical presence of individuals ordered to cease poll-watching activities in Pennsylvania. I identified and geolocated more than 25 videos used in partisan misinformation campaigns. Using Tableau, I visualized data on the spread of misinformation on Twitter on election day.
