a positive contribution in the lives of those I serve and I<br />

strive to provide a work product that is timely, accurate,<br />

and of value to my clients.<br />

My Passion<br />

I have a passion for helping and serving others. I am honored<br />

to assist my clients to protect their family through<br />

proper planning. When a family has suffered the loss of a<br />

loved one, I appreciate the opportunity to help the family<br />

navigate the difficult legal process while they process<br />

their loss. We take great pride in providing excellent<br />

and individualized attention to each client, helping them<br />

understand every step of the process, and ensuring each<br />

client feels comfortable with the service they receive.<br />

and was an officer of the Pro-Bono Honors Society.<br />
