As a military spouse, I am passionate about helping service members and experienced in a wide array of administrative law issues challenging the action of various agencies at the agency level and in federal court, including courts of appeal.  Working for a cloud-based law firm, I enjoy the flexibility of taking on a limited number of cases, which allows me to fully devote adequate attention to each client, while keeping my rates reasonable..
