My Why

What powers my practice

My father was vice president of sales at a Fortune 100 company, and that early exposure sparked my interest in business and law. Today, I partner with clients on strategic planning and execution, aligning legal strategy with business objectives to achieve their goals. My commitment to service extends beyond my practice: I support Alzheimer’s fundraising initiatives in honor of my father and volunteer with Special Olympics, where my son has participated since childhood. I care about my clients and colleagues, treating their matters with the same diligence and compassion I would bring to my own family.
