I grew up in suburban Ohio and moved to New Mexico in 1996 to experience the Rocky Mountain West. I did not plan to stay, but my roots have gone down. I married a native New Mexican and have school age children. We enjoy the great outdoors--fly fishing, hiking, camping, and I still enjoy competive adult soccer and ice hockey. Professionally, I have a dedicated litigation practice and have tried lawsuits in Colorado, New Mexico, and Texas and am a member of the American Board of Trial Advocates.
