Upon graduation from law school, I served as a judicial law clerk to the Honorable Marina Corodemus, J.S.C. in the Superior Court, Middlesex County. During my clerkship, I assisted Judge Corodemus in the centralized management of mass tort and toxic tort litigation, including tobacco, diet drugs, and breast implants. Since joining the Keefe Law Firm, I have worked within the Firm’s core practice areas, including personal injury, wrongful death, consumer fraud, toxic tort, mass tort and class action litigation.
