Career advice: Always be prepared. And, treat people as you would want to be treated.

Something most people don’t know about me: I was a theatre major my freshman year in college.

Change I would like to see: I would like to see more people take a practical approach to the law. No case should be driven by emotion. Careful analysis and sound problem solving lead to the best possible solutions for all involved.
