I represent clients in Pierce, Thurston, Kitsap, King, Jefferson, Clallam, Mason, and Grays Harbor Counties.  I am a native of Washington and graduate of the University of Puget Sound.  I completed the Air Force Reserve Officer Training Corps program at UPS as a scholarship student and was selected as a Distinguished Graduate upon completing the program.
