Practicing in both Oregon and Washington, I have focused my career on advocating for personal injury plaintiffs. I am equally proud to be both an active “Eagle Member” of the Washington State Association of Justice and "Guardian" with the Oregon Trial Lawyers Association.
I obtained my Juris Doctor (J.D.) with the distinction of Magna Cum Laude and Dean’s List honors from Seattle University School of Law. While studying law in Shanghai, I acquired a Certificate in Comprehensive Chinese Law from Willamette University College of Law and East China University of Political Science and Law. Proudly a WSU Cougar, I also hold a BA in Business Administration with a focus on International Business from Washington State University.
Proficient in Chinese, I enjoyed three years lecturing at Nantong University in the Chinese coastal province of Jiangsu. After returning to the United States, I was fortunate enough to serve as secretary for the Law and Development Institute, work at the Washington State Office of the Attorney General, and teach as a teaching assistant at Seattle University School of Law.
