How I represent clients at Schwabe
I assist clients with a variety of real estate, land use, and environmental issues, and I am dedicated to helping them achieve their goals. As a natural problem solver, my attention to detail and wide range of experience make me a trusted advocate for my clients.
Before law school, I worked in the construction industry, managing procurement processes and regulatory compliance for public works projects for contractors. During law school, I gained valuable experience as an extern for Judge James C. Egan, Oregon Court of Appeals. In the summer of 2023, I worked as a Summer Associate at Schwabe, where I gained hands-on experience and further honed my skills.
