About
I am an employment attorney focused on counseling and prevention. I left big-firm practice to deliver responsive advice, lean processes, and clear next steps. Most employment attorneys are built for crisis management—fighting fires after they've already started. But what if you could prevent those fires entirely? After years of litigation experience, I have seen the same patterns repeat: companies making avoidable mistakes, then paying dearly to fix them. There's a better way. I work with thoughtful business leaders who want to do right by their employees while protecting their organizations with clear, actionable advice that helps employers make informed decisions. I also routinely work with employees to navigate tricky employment situations. I advise on employment agreements, restrictive covenants, separations, and all other employment-related matters.
