I have devoted  my legal career to defending the rights of Iowan’s charged with drug and alcohol offenses with an emphasis on operating while intoxicated, boating while intoxicated, serious injury by vehicle, and vehicular homicide cases.  My interest in the criminal justice system began early in my career while attending Simpson College and majoring in Criminal Justice and graduating Cum Laude in 1999.  After attending Simpson, I received my law degree from Drake University in 2002.  While attending Drake, my passion for the criminal justice system was enhanced by completing an internship at the Warren County Attorney’s Office as well as through completion of the Advanced Criminal Defense Clinic.. In 2004 I became a member of the National College of Drunk Driving Defense and am currently one of only a few select attorneys in Iowa to be a member of this organization.  In April 2005, I completed the NHTSA/IACP Standardized Field Sobriety Practitioner Training Course through Walden, Platt and Associates where I became certified to administer and score the same field sobriety tests used by police officers when making an arrest of an intoxicated driver.. I continue to hone my skills in defending the rights of Iowan’s by attending other national and local seminars related to criminal and drunk driving defense.  I have also spoken at numerous seminars on issues such as field sobriety testing, breath testing, case law updates, and appellate practice.  My practice also includes the litigation of appeals through the Iowa Court of Appeals and the Iowa Supreme Court.. I have also been an assistant wrestling coach at Valley Highschool since 2004 and currently am a volunteer assistance.  I enjoy working with the kids to help them not only become better athletes but better individuals.  I also enjoy being outdoors and taking my annual fishing trips to Minnesota.
