My Why

What powers my practice

Before law school, I spent six years working in Wisconsin state politics, specializing in workforce development and taxation policy. What I enjoyed most was working with constituents and small businesses to drive policy changes that benefited local communities, which ultimately inspired me to pursue law as a way to serve people and businesses more directly. At Michael Best, I find fulfillment in translating complex legal requirements into clear, practical guidance that helps clients stay compliant while focusing on their business goals. Whether advising clients, supporting colleagues, or volunteering through pro bono programs, I strive to be solution-oriented, responsive, and a steady resource for those I serve.
