About Me

I have called Florida home for more than 25 years. I graduated with honors from the University of Florida with a Bachelor of Science in Journalism. I then joined one of Orlando’s top TV newsrooms as an associate producer. After leaving local news, I began law school at the Florida State University College of Law. I competed in state and national competitions on both the Moot Court and Mock Trial teams.

I began my legal career serving the people of Orange County as an Assistant State Attorney, prosecuting hundreds of criminal cases involving felony offenses, domestic violence, drug trafficking, and juvenile offenses. I tried over 40 jury and nonjury trials as a prosecutor and Certified Legal Intern. I then joined a national Am Law 200 civil defense firm where I represented large corporations and insurance companies. There, I gained a deep understanding of how these companies handle injury cases. After several years, I felt compelled to use this knowledge to fight for justice on behalf of people and families whose lives were devastated by the negligence of others. I joined a prominent plaintiff’s personal injury law firm to represent people, and I recovered $5 million for my clients.

Outside of work, I love spending time with my wife and our dog Shelby, traveling, snowboarding, and enjoying live music.
