My family went bankrupt when I was six years old. We lost everything – our home, our family business, and our possessions. I lived in three different cities and eight different homes and went to seven different schools over the next eight years of my life as my parents tried to figure it out. I worked as a pool boy and at a skate shop in high school. I went to college at Princeton University, where I graduated summa cum laude and Phi Beta Kappa, and law school at Columbia University, where I graduated in the top 1-3% of my class. I clerked for a federal appellate judge in Baltimore and another one in San Francisco. I worked at a top-tier corporate law firm and then became an executive director of a nonprofit for homeless veterans, fighting – successfully – to secure 1,200 homes for homeless veterans on federal land. I like to ski, read history books, and binge Netflix. I also like to change the law for the little people and help elect progressive candidates to office.
