Prior to moving to the Big Bend, I was Deputy Chief Public Defender in DuPage County, Illinois, where I was in charge of training and supervising the attorneys in the Misdemeanor Division. In addition to my supervisory duties, I maintained an active caseload of felony files. I have tried dozens of cases to verdict.. I hold a law degree from the University of Chicago and a degree in classical guitar performance from Florida State University. I am licensed to practice law in Texas and Illinois (presently voluntarily inactive), as well as the federal district courts for the Western District of Texas and the Northern District of Illinois. I also maintain the Trial Coach website as a resource for defense attorneys who wish to hone their trial advocacy skills. I have been published in The Champion, The Federal Sentencing Reporter, and elsewhere.

206 W Ave E , Alpine , Texas 79830

Practice Areas: Criminal Defense

I grew up all over Texas. My grandparents were ranchers in Presidio County and I spent most of the summers in my early youth on their ranch. I have personally experienced the impact of the legal system on families and children. Because of those experiences, I believe it is a vital part of my job as an attorney to listen and understand the impact of each case for each client. While I do not guarantee results, and no attorney can, I do pride myself on hard work, integrity, compassion and passionate representation.. I have been licensed since 2014 and have been practicing law in the Big Bend since that time. My personal background has led me to this profession and has sculpted my desire to help my clients through whatever legal problem they are facing.. Featured in Texas Monthly:.
