My Why

What powers my practice

I’ve wanted to be a lawyer since childhood. In second grade, when a newspaper asked about my future profession, I answered, “attorney.” Helping clients close transactions is among the most rewarding parts of my work, and supporting their efforts to strengthen their businesses energizes me. I’m grateful to those who helped me along the way, and I’m always up for coffee to pay it forward—meeting with colleagues, prospective clients, and ecosystem builders to support their goals. Over time, many clients have become personal friends, and I hope they know how deeply invested I am in their businesses and their people.
