Family law matters often involve significant emotional, financial, and personal transitions, and my role is to provide clarity, stability, and strong advocacy throughout the process. I take pride in providing clear advice, consistent communication, and steady support from the beginning of the case through its resolution. My approach centers on helping clients reach practical, amicable, and lasting solutions whenever possible. I am always fully prepared to advocate for my clients and protect their interests.

 

I was born and raised in Glen Ellyn, Illinois, and attended Glenbard West High School before earning my associate’s degree from College of DuPage. Then I went on to earn my bachelor’s degree in political science from North Central College in Naperville, IL. I continued my legal education at Northern Illinois University College of Law, where I obtained my Juris Doctorate and developed the skills that shaped how I practice today.

 

After graduating high school, I had the opportunity to gain early professional experience in the insurance industry. That work offered a practical view of the legal system and sparked a deeper interest in understanding how law impacts everyday people. This exposure ultimately guided me toward the legal field and laid the groundwork for my transition into practicing law.

 

My passion for family law comes from a desire to create meaningful change for individuals navigating some of life’s most challenging moments. I wanted to work in a legal discipline where the impact of my efforts would be immediate and personal. During law school, I had an incredible opportunity to clerk for a Cook County Circuit Court Judge in the Domestic Relations Division. Once I explored the field, it became clear that family law offered the greatest opportunity to make a tangible, positive difference in the lives of families who rely on strong, compassionate representation.

 

My goal in every case is to ensure that clients understand the legal process, feel supported, and are able to make well-informed decisions during a challenging time. I strive to respond promptly to questions, offer straightforward guidance, and remain accessible throughout the duration of representation. Above all, I am committed to achieving the best possible outcome for each client.

 

Outside the office, I enjoy equestrian sports and spending time outdoors through swimming, hiking, and gardening. These pursuits help me maintain balance while fueling the focus and energy I bring to my work and clients.
