What’s on your bucket list?

My bucket list is centered on growing as a transactional attorney. I would like to lead a landmark deal from negotiation through closing and structure a complex transaction that creatively brings together multiple parties and funding sources. I'd also like to build client relationships that last across many transactions.

What was your most memorable job or work experience?

My most memorable experience was guiding a client through a time-sensitive transaction when an unexpected obstacle threatened the timeline. By breaking the problem into parts, keeping all parties aligned, and offering practical solutions, we closed on schedule. It reinforced for me that legal work is about more than technical expertise; it's about clear communications, sound judgment,and helping clients achieve their business goals.

Something else I think you should know about me...

I'm someone who genuinely enjoys learning new things and helping the people around me succeed. I take pride in doing high quality legal work, communicate openly, and adapt quickly when priorities change. I work well independently and as part of a team, and always looking for ways to improve.
