My current community service activity is raising a guide dog puppy for the blind. Our last dog two dogs we raised are now guides to people in California. Each dog is trained in basic obedience and social manners and sometimes will join client meetings. After approximately a year the puppy continues his training at the Guide Dog campus in Boring, Oregon.. I also as an volunteer attorney for Lawyers Fostering Independence - assisting youth who have aged out of foster care and need legal advise.. Other interests of mine include, gardening, cooking (fried chicken is a specialty as a result of my mother's southern influence), attending Seattle Storm basketball games and travel when time allows. One of the most interesting places that I lived is Morocco - I spent time in a small town outside Rabat named Mehdiya Plage. I also lived Paris and I highly recommend the Dali Musuem as an off the beaten path Museum.

My practice provides clients with personal legal services in estate planning, real estate and business planning. I use a non-traditional style of doing business that is designed to meet clients' needs when they arise, through responsiveness and efficient, one-on-one communication.. ---. I'm a Missouri Tiger, having graduated from the University of Missouri, with a BS in Business Administration in 1992 and my JD in 1995. I'm often asked how I ended up in Poulsbo. It's a long story, but for starters, check the heat index in Missouri in August and the wind chill factor in February.. I enjoy the practice of law, but I love my family. Consequently, I work from both my commerical office in Poulsbo and my home office in Seattle, as this allows me to be available for my family, instead of commuting several hours daily in my car or on the ferry. A normal work week for me finds me in Poulsbo two to three days each week on average. Those days are spent primarily meeting with clients or in court. Because I'm often returning home on the Winslow ferry, it's not uncommon for me to schedule meetings with Bainbridge clients at their home or place of business at the end of a day. My days in my home office are production days where I'm preparing work product for clients. However, my use of technology allows me to be flexible for client needs, remaining available to clients for phone calls or Skype meetings.
