“Initially, my interests lay in international law, conflict resolution, and post-conflict reconstruction. While in law school, I received training in these areas in The Hague, The Netherlands, the international city of peace and justice and home to several international courts and tribunals. These interests and skills transferred well into a career as a personal injury lawyer. I enjoy working closely with our clients and advocating for their rights and a fair settlement.”
