When I am not arguing with the IRS and negotiating fantastic deals for my clients, I enjoy spending time with my family - attending my kids' baseball games, seeing them develop their musical/artistic talents, seeing them grow into responsible (hopefully) adults.. I grew up in the Central Valley "one-high-school town" of Ceres.  I spent 4 years in Southern California while I attended college, and we have lived in in the greater Sacramento area since 2000.. I enjoy cooking (ok, mostly eating) and reading a variety of books.  I love listening to music.  I have moved beyond 1980s heavy metal bands of my youth, but not too far beyond:)

Our office remains open and accepting new clients.  We offer consultations via Zoom, FaceTime or telephone calls.. I am one of a handful of Certified Family Law Specialists in the Stanislaus and San Joaquin area.  Family law is my favorite area of the law as I greatly enjoy the ability to help people navigate through the court process.  I know that I go to court every day but that my clients don't.  I understand that this process can be overwhelming and often, emotionally driven.  My job is to be certain that my clients understand best case scenarios and worst case scenarios so that they can make smart decisions that will positively benefit them in the long-run.  I am naturally honest, sometimes brutally honest.  I am a small-business owner, a wife, a mom and part of a blended family.  I love technology and I use it to maintain the best level of communication with my clients possible.  My clients are almost entirely referral based due to my reputation in this area as a strong advocate with a very specialized knowledge of family law and our local judges.
