I have been an Oregon resident for over 30 years. My maternal grandfather’s family moved to Oregon prior to statehood. I attended Central High School in Independence, Oregon, Chemekata in Salem, and graduated from Portland State University. I knew from an early age that I wanted to practice law in some form. I graduated from Willamette Law school in 2002, and worked as a law clerk for several years before opening my practice in 2006. I have practiced the Marion County area for 20 years, almost exclusively in the Estate planning and estate administration elder law area.
I take pride in providing competent, compassionate legal services to my clients while they are either planning for or navigating some of the most difficult times in their lives.
When I am not at the office I enjoy hiking, golfing, and walking my dogs. My wife and I enjoy traveling, especially to Hawaii, where I spent time as a child.
