I grew up in Miami County, Indiana, and graduated from Maconaquah High School in 2002.  I received a Bachelor of Science Degree from Indiana University Kokomo in 2006.  Prior to attending law school, I worked at Miami Correctional Facility as a casework manager.  I earned my juris doctorate, magna cum laude, at Thomas M. Cooley Law School where I graduated 4th out of a class of 437 students.  I am authorized to practice law in the State of Indiana. 

I joined the team at NOEL LAW in the fall of 2011.  I am also an adjunct professor at Ivy Tech Community College in the paralegal program.  I have taught Legal Ethics and Torts.

 In addition to practicing law, I am an avid musician.  I play guitar, mandolin, and banjo, in a folk-rock band, and I play often at my local church.  I am also a devoted father and husband.
