With an understanding that no two families, nor the experience that individuals have in those families, are alike, I have attempted to expand both my knowledge and skills in the field of Family Law by engaging in a variety of learning experiences. While earning my undergraduate degree in Social Work, I worked as a case worker for Parsons Foster Care, aiding in the growth of youth in our care. While in Law School, I was employed at the Office of Children and Family Services, working both in their litigation department and overseeing abuse and neglect appeals. After graduating cum laude from Albany Law School in 2019, I began my career as a Family Attorney at Cordell Law, LLP, specializing in domestic litigation. Everyday I continue to learn from this field, from my career, and from my clients. Being able to meet people where they are and work with them towards a brighter future drives a successful attorney and in turn a successful law firm.
