My Why
What powers my practice
My interest in law—and specifically regulatory work—grew out of my background in environmental sciences and my time with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. Supporting client projects from permitting through operation sparked my interest for environmental law. It’s incredibly rewarding to see how Michael Best can shape a client’s business strategy and contribute to their growth. One of the aspects I enjoy most is tailoring legal strategies to each client’s broader goals while helping them navigate complex regulatory landscapes with their long-term vision in mind.
