My Why
What powers my practice
My father’s career as a lawyer and judge inspired my path, but with a background in the arts, I was drawn to the creative ways law can make a difference. I was especially moved by stories of attorneys helping Holocaust survivors reclaim stolen artwork—proof of how powerful a law degree can be. I find fulfillment in helping clients make sense of the law and feel supported through the process, whether that’s simplifying complex issues or crafting creative employee handbooks that reflect their unique culture. My goal is to give clients clarity and confidence, turning what can feel overwhelming into something manageable and meaningful.
