At Brooklyn Law School (2002-05), which I attended on an academic merit-based half scholarship, I interned with Legal Aid's Juvenile Rights Division funded by a fellowship from the Brooklyn Law Students for the Public Interest, with the late Judge McLaughlin of the Second Circuit, the SDNY AUSA's Criminal Division, and the Brooklyn DA's Gang Unit.
Following law school, I returned to the Second Circuit where I served as a Staff Attorney for 2 years.
I began my career in the private sector at a mid-sized Wall Street firm in 2007, litigating complex commercial and insurance coverage disputes.
I worked at the Law Offices of Alan S. Futerfas from 2011-17. The firm specializes in white collar criminal defense & securities/business litigation. I was involved in all aspects of the firm's practices.
In 2017, I joined the firm of Liddle & Robinson, LLP. The firm provides aggressive & personalized legal representation primarily to individuals, but also to financial services firms, hedge funds & other businesses in high-stakes, cutting-edge employment, securities & commercial litigation matters.
In 2018, I joined Sahn Ward Coschignano, PLLC. The Firm provides its clients with full-service, integrated solutions to the types of problems they face in its areas of practice. The Firm’s attorneys have wide-ranging experience in various areas of the law, including the public sector.
