After graduating with a Masters in Social Work I worked for the Public Defenders Office and provided assistance to troubled youth and their families. As an expert witness, the Courts relied upon my recommendations, to find resources and programs to assist the children as they returned to their home environment. This experience made me realize that Family Law was my true calling. I knew that I could do even more for families if I was the one representing them in court whether as an Attorney, a Parenting Coordinator, or Guardian ad Litem. My goal is twofold: To incorporate my experience and clinical skills as a social worker to help families deal with the subjective and human factors of divorce such as pain, fear, displacement and uncertainty and combine that with my experience and legal skill set as an attorney. While I can’t guarantee what the future holds, I promise that I will bring compassion, tenacity, and advocacy every step of the way.
