I am passionate about community building and connecting people. I love the human side of the law, and the ability to help families on a personal level.
I previously served on the associate board of directors for the Boys and Girls Club of the peninsula, and on the young leaders cabinet for the Jewish Federation in Los Angeles.
Outside of work, I love surfing, guitar playing, backpacking, and running (among other things). Huge San Francisco Giants, 49ers, Stanford Football and Basketball fan!
