I have long been a strong advocate for children. Before attending law school, I was a social worker for the Bureau of Milwaukee Child Welfare. Now as an attorney, I help families involved in divorce and paternity proceedings, grandparent and foster parent rights cases, and in complicated CHIPS and termination of parental rights matters. I also serve as a mediator, as well as a guardian ad litem, representing the best interest of children. In all cases, I seek creative solutions that work for families and protect children’s rights.

She was the lead attorney in a 2014 appeal in Wisconsin about applying the marital presumption of parentage to married same-sex couples post-marriage equality. She represents children and families all over the world in immigration, adoption, and assisted reproduction matters.
