I was fortunate to find my passion working with seniors and their families to help them plan for their future, provide for their loved ones, and handle crisis situations. My clients impress me with their resilience and strength when faced with difficult situations.. I have been practicing Elder Law since I graduated from Boston College Law School in 1998.  In 2008, I was appointed by the Governor as a Public Administrator of Suffolk County.  I continue to serve in this role, serving as the administrator of estates with no known heirs.  My goal is to provide the highest quality work with care and compassion.
