My motto: “Fortune favors the prepared.”
Fun Fact: I have three adorable, small dogs… Lulu, Loki, and Luna.
I became an attorney because: an advertisement on the law school’s television said: “Intellectuals solve problems, but geniuses prevent them.” I want to work with clients to proactively address issues before they arise.
Where I’d most like to live: Mexico. It’s a country with a rich and diverse culture. The architecture of its historical buildings, the culinary variations from state-to-state, and the laidback atmosphere of pueblo life captivate me.
