About Me

My motto: "For our own success to be real, it must contribute to the success of others."   -Eleanor Roosevelt

The best thing about Ward and Smith is: the client-focused business model supported by all attorneys in the firm. Each client gets the best service because they are paired with the attorney best suited to help them.

I became a lawyer because: I enjoy learning new things, and the law changes every day. 

One surprising thing people don't know about me is: I sang acapella for Ruth Bader Ginsburg at the National Constitution Center in Washington, DC. Our performance was broadcast on C-SPAN. 

Where I'd most like to live and why: Japan because of the culture and food (and the public transportation). I love sushi!
