I believe everyone should have the right to work and earn their living free from discrimination and exploitation. I focus my practice on labor and employment litigation, with a special interest in employment discrimination.

I was born and raised in the Chicagoland area. After high school, I worked in the service industry—mainly as a server in restaurants—for many years. Although I have been justice-oriented from a young age, my restaurant experience was particularly formative in shaping my interest in workers’ rights.

In 2017, I moved to Oregon and studied history at Portland State University. My academic focus on modern society’s structures and systems led to my interest in law. While in law school, I realized that my personal and academic experiences crossed over in the area of labor and employment law. I’m thankful to be at Bennett Hartman where I can fight the good fight for workers’ rights.
