While I attended law school, I interned for two summers, 2016 and 2017, with the Middlesex County Prosecutor’s Office, Appellate Unit. During my internship, I drafted appellate briefs for direct appeals, post-conviction relief appeals, and intra office memoranda for various Assistant Prosecutors. In my second summer, I argued municipal appeals for the Prosecutor’s Office. Since my first year of law school, I volunteered my time for the Delaware Chapter of Wills For Heroes, which is a national organization that drafts free estate planning documents for first responders/military veterans and their families.

During my final year of law school, I interned with the Honorable Paula T. Dow, P.J.Ch. in the New Jersey Superior Court for Burlington County from August 2017 until May 2018. In this position, I conducted legal research, reviewed General Equity, Foreclosure, and Probate motions, and synthesized the positions and contentions of the parties for Judge Dow’s review or for drafts of legal memoranda.

I served as a Judicial Law Clerk for the Honorable John C. Porto, J.S.C during the 2018-2019 Court Term in the New Jersey Superior Court for Atlantic/Cape May Counties. In this position, I worked closely with large, national firms for the Multi-County Litigation cases assigned to Judge Porto by the New Jersey Supreme Court. In addition to assisting Judge Porto with the Mass Tort/Multi-County Litigation cases, I reviewed civil motions, conducted legal research to assist Judge Porto with his decisions, and drafted legal memoranda for the Prerogative Writs, Mount Laurel Obligations, Civil Motions, and Chancery, Probate, and Foreclosure matters overseen by Judge Porto. Moreover, I served as a mediator for small-claims matters in Atlantic County.

Following my clerkship, I worked for a Mid-Sized Regional Law Firm located in the Roseland, New Jersey where I focused my practice on the areas of personal injury, trucking liability, motor vehicle liability, premise liability, products liability, and other civil litigation matters, both general and complex, throughout New Jersey and New York. I also focused on Estate Planning, Estate Administration, and Probate Litigation within New Jersey.

Currently, I work for a boutique law firm's Newark, New Jersey office where I focus my practice on Mass Torts and Products Liability styled cases as well as general litigation matters of a similar nature within the State and Federal Court systems across the country.
