Biography
I am experienced in a variety of practice areas, including Consumer Protection, Bankruptcy, Foreclosure Prevention, Debt Collection Defense and other general litigation. I am passionate about all litigation especially consumer protection cases. A major area of focus for me is student loan debt. I am continually advocating for solutions to the private student loan debt crisis and I have had an op-ed published in the Seattle Times advocating for greater consumer protections. I also have experience in class actions. In 2014 I filed a major class action against one of the state’s largest debt collectors, AllianceOne Receivables Management. The case, Dibb, et al. v. AllianceOne Receivables Management, resulted in nearly a million dollars being paid to Washington individuals and families who were illegally collected against.
I also spend a significant amount of time volunteering. I volunteer at both the King County Bar Associations Neighborhood Legal Clinics and the Northwest Justice Project’s free debt clinic. I have lobbied Washington State’s Congress on issues such as wage theft, increasing the minimum wage, and protecting worker compensation.
Schooling

Central Washington University - B.A. in Communications

Hobbies
Playing and watching soccer with my family, snowboarding and hiking. I am also a huge Sounders and Seahawks fan.
