I was exposed to law at an early age as my grandfather and father were trial lawyers, grandmother was a court reporter and my uncle was a US Marshall. I had the opportunity to view trials starting at a very young age and see how a trial lawyer was able to help a client through very difficult times. In high school, I excelled at debate and was encouraged to pursue the practice of law. I enjoy trying cases and helping clients and families achieve justice through the legal system.
