Before joining Kearns Rotolo, I was an Assistant Prosecutor for the Hunterdon County Prosecutor’s Office since 2015.

I later served as the Bureau Chief of the Major Crimes Unit, Acting Bureau Chief of the Special Victims’ Unit, and Legal Advisor to the Professional Standards & Internal Affairs Bureau.. As an Assistant Prosecutor, I prosecuted indictable offenses and handled all court appearances from initial charging through jury trial and sentencing.
