OVERVIEW
Mandy’s practice focuses on holding powerful institutions to account in complex civil litigation matters involving antitrust, competition, privacy, and civil and human rights disputes. Mandy earned her J.D. from Duke University School of Law, where she was an academic writer and legal historical researcher, with a focus on the civil rights era, the pernicious conservative origins of the Chicago School Economics and its impact on the American antitrust doctrine, and race, poverty, and law. Additionally, Mandy externed as a judicial law clerk at the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia with the Honorable Royce C. Lamberth.
Before law school, Mandy worked for several years as a full-stack software engineer, programming mobile and web applications. She worked with several small tech start-ups, tackling diverse issues, such as food justice and sustainability, educational access, and animal welfare.
In 2023, Mandy was recognized in the Unconventional Award category, an award given to those persons who stand out from the pack by taking a different approach to litigation or problem-solving, one of five award categories that make up the Hausfeld Values Awards, an annual recognition program that highlights the achievements of Hausfeld team members based on their significant contributions made and results achieved over the prior calendar year.
Working towards a diverse, equitable, and inclusive world is paramount to Mandy who is an active member of our LGBTQ+ Alliance working group.
