I decided to become an attorney because I wanted to help obtain justice for individuals who have been wronged. I chose to practice employment law to address the ongoing mistreatment that many people experience at work. Discrimination must be eliminated, whistle-blowers need protection, and workers deserve fair pay and decent working conditions.
