At our core, lawyers are problem-solvers. I enjoy the work that I do because I am helping people to realize solutions to the issues they are facing, or to think about ways to anticipate and avoid issues in the future. I constantly seek to work hand-in-hand with people to ensure that they feel valued, respected and supported as they work toward their life goals, whatever they might be.
