Legal interests: criminal defense, plaintiffs’ law, family law
I was born to and raised in western Montana by a public defender father and journalist mother; and I’ve lived in Portland, Oregon for over 10 years. I attended Reed College, where I wrote my thesis on radical environmentalism and received a Bachelor of Arts in Political Science. Prior to attending LC Law, I worked with attorneys to secure compensation for wrongfully terminated employees, to defend the rights of defendants charged with crimes, to advocate for people in family law matters, to ensure fair treatment for people injured in accidents, and to advocate for children at Youth, Rights, and Justice in Portland.
My passion for criminal defense is inspired by police violation of citizen rights, police misconduct, and police state overreach.
