I have been an attorney since 2006 and I very much enjoy what I do and helping others. I have centered my practice of law to meet all my client’s needs as they navigate through their life – from estate planning to probate, prenuptial agreements to divorce, real property purchases to property disputes, to personal injury. I strive to cover all areas that people will encounter during their life. Why does this matter? So that you won’t need multiple lawyers throughout life and can stay centered with one who knows you and your needs. So that you will have an attorney you can feel comfortable calling and asking for help – because as they always say, it’s a lot cheaper to avoid a problem than to fight to get out of one, and if you have to fight, its better to fight with an attorney you know and like.
My approach to law is very similar to my approach to life. I am very passionate about my clients, their causes and their lives, and I fight to ensure that you are well represented. I might be a little feisty at times, but I can guarantee that is only because I want the best for you.
I have two school age children who are active in sports, friends, and school, which means that my life, outside of my law practice, generally revolves around theirs and I absolutely would not trade it for anything. When they are not keeping me busy, I love plants and gardening, traveling, and staying active.
I graduated from Willamette School of Law class of 2006 graduating Cum Laude where I did a little bit of everything – I was editor on Willamette Law Review, on the Moot Court Board, and was a 3rd year certified law clerk, to name a few. Before that, I graduated with a Bachelor of Science from Western Oregon University.
Professionally, I am an Oregon State Bar Member, Oregon Trial Lawyers Association Member, and Washington County Bar Association Member.
