I am focused on providing my clients quality and ethical legal services.  I am determined to provide all information and advice necessary so you can make the best educated and informed decision for yourself and your family.  I very much enjoy the process of mediation. It provides a cost effective aternative to expensive litigation.  As a trained mediator, I assist family members in communicating with each other with the goal of resolving their legal issues. Families often have the ability to resolve their own issues given the opportunity; I will give you that oppurtunity.

As an adjunct professor at West Chester University, I teach Immigration and Criminal Justice which is a perfect compliment to my immigration practice.

I received my undergraduate degree from Immaculata University (Phi Alpha Theta History Honor Society, Spanish National Honor Society) and received my law degree from Widener University School of Law.  For the last 16 years, I have welcomed new citizens into the United States by being the Chairperson of the Naturalization Committee of the Chester County Bar Association.

I am one of the few Chester County attorneys that is a "native" bilingual.  I live in West Chester and love to work with the community.  This year marks 17 years that I have volunteered at my Parish as a PREP(CCD) teacher.  I am a member of the Chester County Disaster Action Team Red Cross and have assisted people harmed by fires or ice storms.  My love of animals has led me to become a member and Public Information Officer for the Chester County Animal Response Team (CART-assisting family's companion animals during disasters requiring sheltering) and have recently been trained to assist oiled wildlife at Tri-State Bird Rescue for their Oil Program.
