Andrea (“Andi”) Mazingo is the Founding Attorney of Lumen Law Center, P.C. and Of Counsel at Marcuse Law, where she represents employees in complex employment disputes and high-impact civil litigation. She brings over a decade of experience practicing in elite corporate law firms, leading public-interest legal teams, and conducting complex investigations at the intersection of law, governance, and emerging technology.

Andi’s practice focuses on employment discrimination, retaliation, and wrongful termination, with a particular emphasis on pretextual mass layoffs in Big Tech and wrongful terminations in Big Law. Having practiced corporate defense litigation at Orrick, Herrington & Sutcliffe LLP and Jones Day, she understands how large employers evaluate risk, build internal narratives, and defend litigation—insight she now uses to advocate powerfully for employees.

In addition to her private practice, Andi serves as Chief Ethics Officer at Curiouser.ai, where she guides ethical governance frameworks to ensure that AI systems reflect transparency, fairness, and human-centered values, comply with applicable laws, and advance democratic accountability. She has also served as General Counsel and Director of Legal Services at A New Way of Life Reentry Project, leading legal advocacy on behalf of formerly incarcerated women and their families.

Andi is a graduate of UC Berkeley and Northwestern Pritzker School of Law. Her work has been recognized by Super Lawyers Rising Stars and Best Lawyers: Ones to Watch in America. She is a vocal advocate for neurodiversity, gender diversity, racial justice, disability inclusion, and LGBTQ+ inclusion in both the legal and technology sectors.

A proud mom of two, Andi is queer, AuDHD, and a committed believer in what she calls “delusional optimism”—the radical idea that law and technology can still be tools for accountability, dignity, and shared prosperity.
