About
I've always been someone who chooses their words carefully, because I'm strategic and analytical (and introverted). There are countless combinations of words to express a single thought, but which combination conveys it the best?
That's why I love being a lawyer—strategic language analysis with the added complexity of legal parameters.
I'm also passionate about finding the best way to deliver legal services. I'm not a lawyer who racks up billable hours. I believe in leveraging technology maximize efficiency, so I can create the most value for my clients—that's what great legal service is… read more all about.
