I started my legal career representing children in foster care through the family court process. I then worked at the City Attorney’s Office as a prosecutor before accepting a position as a deputy public defender. During my time at the Washoe County Public Defender’s Office, I zealously advocated for the accused through the pretrial, trial, and sentencing process. I  gained invaluable trial experience through these positions.

I’ve taken my passion for defense work with me to my private practice where I continue to work with the accused, victims of crime, parents of children in foster care, and children accused of delinquent acts. As a sole practitioner, I’ve had the pleasure of expanding my practice to represent individuals in various civil matters. I, additionally, serve as a volunteer for the Nevada State Bar Disciplinary Panel.

I completed mediation training in 2023. Alternate dispute resolution is an important consideration for legal actions that is often overlooked. I have experience as both a party representative in mediations and settlement conferences and as a mediator in various legal disputes.

I was born and raised in Reno, Nevada. My husband and I have three beautiful children. In our free time, we enjoy skiing, biking, horseback riding, and attending Wolf Pack and Aces games. I’m a proud Northern Nevadan excited to continue giving back to the community in which I grew up.
