I was raised in the woods and water of Calvert County, Maryland on the Chesapeake Bay. My parents taught me at a young age that everything in life is about trust and relationships. Be honest, do your best to help people, and always believe in what you do.

At age 14, my parents sent me to work for his grandfather’s marine mechanic business to “build character.” Hauling toolboxes in the summer heat on the docks of the Waterfront in Washington, D.C. did indeed build character, and I develop a strong work ethic as a result. I learned that there is pride in doing even the “dirtiest” jobs and satisfaction in honest pay for honest work.

I became fascinated with courts and the world of law in elementary school, where I would rush home every day to watch the O.J. Simpson trial on TV with my dad. I saw early on how powerful good advocacy can be. I carried this passion for advocacy through to the high school mock trial team and eventually to the George Mason University School of Law, where I graduated with honors.

Out of law school, I worked in private practice in northern Virginia. Excited to help anyone who needed a good advocate, I have handled a wide range of legal matters. From jury trials to local zoning board meetings and appeals to the Supreme Court of Virginia, my passion for advocacy has taken me anywhere that my clients need me to go!

I live in Herndon, Virginia and am huge a film buff. I enjoy discovering hidden gem movies, both old and new. I am always be happy to talk to you about what you have seen recently or some old favorites you revisit again and again.
