With the understanding that clients operate in a fast-paced environment, where circumstances can change without warning, I offer clients prompt and pragmatic solutions. The big picture is at the forefront of my mind, even when providing detail-oriented and personalized legal advice. I build trust with clients by maintaining open communication and delivering favorable results. To provide the most effective advice, I continue to educate myself about changes in the legal and medical fields.

My workers' compensation career started in 1973 as a claims manager for a private insurance company in Oregon.  In 1980 I joined the legal division of the Oregon State Accident Insurance Fund.  In 1986 I began representing injured workers in private practice, which has continued to the present.. I enjoy hiking, especially in the Columbia River Gorge where I live, tinkering with classic cars, riding my Tennessee Walker bay mare and home improvement projects.

I Graduated from the University of Idaho with a B.S. Degree in Political Science (1982) and a J.D. from the University of Idaho School of Law (1986). For the last 37 years, I have litigated hundreds of cases including personal injury and workers' compensation cases. I have been tenaciously defending injured parties in civil lawsuits involving car accidents, insurance companies, and work-related injuries. I have worked for the Idaho Industrial Commission and know how to create a successful claim.
