What does it look like when a lifelong builder brings entrepreneurship into legal operations—and uses artificial intelligence to turn a team into a true force multiplier?

In this episode of PossibLaw, host Salvador Carranza sits down with Gabriel Saunders (Senior Solutions Consultant & Legal Operations Strategist at LegalSifter and former Director of Legal Operations at Exos) to unpack how builders think: curiosity, technical fluency, adaptability, and high agency. Gabriel shares his journey from DIY gaming PCs and startup attempts to confronting real-world failures in criminal discovery—and how that mindset now powers smarter business decisions, better risk assessment, and practical automation in modern legal workflows.

This conversation goes beyond hype. It’s about real innovation in the legal industry: evaluating vendors with transparency, teaching AI literacy, and building systems that scale—while keeping the human side of leadership, emotional intelligence, culture, and even parenting in view.
