About Andrea
Biography
While I offer a full suite of legal services, I focus on small business, non-profits, social enterprises, community economic development, land trusts, and employment and housing law.
I am passionate about developing healthy neighborhoods and local economies, particularly through worker self-directed enterprises, or cooperatives and community land trusts.
I enjoy growing food and spending time in nature and traveling as well as spending quality time with my partner, family and housing community.
