Biography

I have been working with families throughout the years first as a researcher, then as a social work intern in family interventions and legal intern in mental health and family court, and now as an attorney. I believe in helping folks with what they are faced with now but with an understanding that there is a future to plan and making sure they are prepared. I aim to empower clients, ensure they are informed and confident in their legal process either in litigation or mediation. The better someone is prepared for tomorrow, whatever that may be, the better I feel I have done my job.
