As a third-generation lawyer whose family has been licensed to practice law in California for over 100 years, I grew up in a lawyer’s household. My childhood was filled with discussions of the law, the legal profession, and a deep-seated concern for clients’ best interests. Identified as having “lawyer skills” from a young age, there was no doubt that I would follow the family profession. 

I have represented all manner of clients—from individuals, to regional utilities, to the nation’s largest banks, and the world’s largest retailers—and everything in between, for their litigation needs. I practice in the areas of civil and probate litigation, and my clients can rely on me for informed, measured, and forthright advice and top-notch legal work.

I graduated from Thomas Jefferson School of Law in San Diego in 2006, where I competed in regional, national, and international mock trial competitions, most-notably winning the 2005 ABA Labor & Employment Trial Advocacy Competition in Los Angeles and placing second at the 2006 ABA/John Marshall International Criminal Trial Advocacy Competition in Chicago. I was admitted to practice law in California in 2006 and Ohio in 2007, and have been admitted to the federal bar for the Northern, Central, and Eastern Districts of California.
