Biography
A native New Yorker, I moved to Pittsburgh in 2011, and earned my JD from the University of Pittsburgh School of Law. Before law school, I attained a Bachelor of Science degree in Business Administration with a minor in English from Drexel University in Philadelphia. Since moving to Pittsburgh, I have embraced the city with open arms, and now dedicate all of my focus to resolving legal disputes. With a diverse business background and solutions-oriented approach to problem solving, I stand ready to guide you through the most trying legal engagements. Thorough preparation and readiness are hallmarks of my approach towards resolution.
