After years of living in several major Northeastern cities and eight years of practicing law in New York and Boston, I moved to Bowling Green, KY in 2002 when my husband became a faculty member at Western Kentucky University. I count myself fortunate to be part of a thriving law firm of about 25 attorneys that has a varied practice that reaches across Kentucky. The breadth of my partners' experience allows me to focus on what I like to do best: help my clients solve business problems. Sometimes, those problems have to be solved in court; sometimes, they don't. I listen to my clients and together, we come up with a strategy to try to get them where they want to go, as efficiently as possible.. When I am not in the office, you will find me running, reading fiction, cheering on the sidelines of my sons' soccer games, or working on our 100+ year old house.
