Hi, I’m Huimeng Yu. I’m a cross-border attorney with a Juris Doctor from UC Davis School of Law and California Bar admission in 2024. I have hands-on experience in mergers and acquisitions due diligence, contract disputes, and bankruptcy proceedings from internships in Beijing and California, and I’m known for clear legal memos, rigorous research, and collaborative teamwork. Beyond the law, I studied theoretical physics and possess programming and design skills (Python, HTML/CSS, Three.js, Illustrator, Photoshop). I enjoy applying analytical thinking to complex legal and business problems, bridging technology and policy, and communicating complex ideas in an accessible way. I’m excited to contribute to cross-border projects at the intersection of law, tech, and commerce.
