Although originally from Long Island, I grew up in Chesapeake, Virginia.  After attending the University of Virginia and the Charleston School of Law, I was happy to return to the Tidewater area to begin my legal career.  I love the work that I do as an associate at Foley & Foley, P.C.  From employment work to family law, I find deep satisfaction in working closely with individuals to successfully resolve their legal issues.. Community outreach is exceptionally important to me.  I am a member of the Norfolk Portsmouth Bar Association and serve on the Bench Bar Committee.  In addition, I am actively involved with the Hampton Roads Society for Human Resource Management and am on the board of the Ghent Dog Park Association.. I live in the Ghent section of Norfolk, Virginia with my rescue dog, Margo.  In my spare time I enjoy reading, cooking, and practicing yoga.  A true beach girl at heart, I can frequently be found at the beach or enjoying one of the many excellent restaurants in Norfolk.  I'm an avid sports fan and concert-goer and have a passion for travel - I'm always planning my next adventure.
