I have been practicing law since 1983. I am licensed in Ohio, Missouri, and Arizona. Prior to practicing law, after earning a Master of Education degree, I was employed by the Cincinnati Public Schools for seven years teaching children facing extended hospitalizations at Children’s Hospital Medical Center.
After graduating 6th in my law school class, I practiced law in a corporate setting and in private practice in Cincinnati, Ohio and St. Louis, Missouri. In 1987, I earned a Master of Laws degree (Tax) from Washington University School of Law in St. Louis, Missouri. From 1987 – 1995, I worked for the U.S. Department of Treasury, and the St. Louis Circuit Attorney’s Office. In 1996, I relocated to Tucson, Arizona where I have been practicing law concentrating my practice in family law.
With an advanced tax law degree, I am uniquely qualified to deal with high asset, business, and tax issues as they relate to my family law practice. I take pride in the personal service I provide to each of my clients.
