Probate Attorney | Serving Chicago, IL

Biography
I strive to be approachable and straightforward, and as a client you will deal with me directly. I enjoy working with individuals, estates and businesses to get legal results in a timely fashion, particularly during trying times for families.
I hold a BS from the University of Illinois at Chicago and a JD from Lewis & Clark Law School in Portland, Oregon. I am licensed in Illinois and a member of the Illinois State Bar Association. I am also proud to volunteer with Chicago Volunteer Legal Services, which provides free legal services to lower-income individuals.
Before law school, I worked as a marine biologist in Alaska, collecting fisheries data for the federal government aboard commercial fishing vessels between 59' and 270' in length. I currently live with my family near Chicago and enjoy distance biking, traveling, and reading.
