I was born in Nashville.  I attended Tennessee Technological University graduating Cum Laude with a degree in electrical engineering.  After practicing engineering for over 20 years, I attended Nashville School of Law graduating #1 in my class.  I bring a unique perspective to my practice and stand ready to help.

I moved to Nashville in 2011 after graduating law school. I'm a solo Criminal Defense attorney, handling anything between minor drug possession and violent felony charges. I believe each case should be handled individually, because each client is an individual with their own history, experiences, and goals. My practice is client-focused, with utmost importance placed on making sure my clients feel that they are in as much control of the direction their case is headed as is humanly possible. I pride myself on maintaining a steady line of communication with clients at all times.. I live in West Nashville with my wife, two dogs, and cat. In our free time we enjoy biking, camping, hiking, canoeing, and playing board games.

I am 61 years old.  I enjoy criminal defense work and cannot imagine practicing any other kind of law.  My only outside interest is doting on  my granddaughter.

Honesty. Respect. Hard work. These values are an integral part of both my personal
and professional life and are the foundation on which my practice is
built. The legal process can be a confusing and scary place for the
unfamiliar. Please allow me the opportunity to assist you. Contact my
office for additional information and a free consultation.
