A Bit About Me

Ian Lewenstein has worked in state government since 2014, when he joined the revisor's office, a nonpartisan legislative office in the Minnesota Legislature. While working for the revisor's office, Ian edited thousands of bills and other legislative documents and helped draft and edit over 100 administrative rules. He soon became fascinated by the rulemaking process and quickly developed into an expert on how to clearly and accurately draft rules for affected businesses and the public.

Ian has a bachelor’s degree from the University of Minnesota, a master’s degree from the University of Chicago, and a paralegal certificate from Hamline University.
