State Bar of Nevada Certfiied Family Law Specialist serving Las Vegas, Henderson, and Clark County.
As a native Las Vegan, I have lifelong ties to our community. After graduating with my bachelor’s degree from the UNLV Honors College in 1999, I worked for several years at a local ambulance company as an Emergency Medical Technician (EMT-I) and as an American Heart Association certified CPR and First Aid Instructor. While working full-time as an EMT, I attended the William S. Boyd School of Law where I earned several academic awards and graduated in the top 10% of my class. Since 2007, my practice has focused almost exclusively on family law.
I am a member of the Nevada State Bar Family Law Section. I am also a member of the State Bar of Southern Neavda Attorney Discipline Panel, the State Bar of Nevada Fee Dispute Committee, and was chosen as a Super Lawers Mountain States Rising Star in 2016 - an award given to no more than 2.5% of the attorneys in Nevada.
