Proven Legal Knowledge

I have spent my legal career navigating the exact issues decided daily in District Court. My extensive background encompasses criminal defense, from traffic and DUI offenses to misdemeanors and preliminary felony proceedings. I have handled civil matters including probate, guardianship, evictions, small claims, and property disputes. I have worked as a Family Court Staff Attorney, served as a Department of Public Advocacy Conflict Attorney, and volunteered at Veteran Expungement Clinics. 



KEY PRIORITIES AS YOUR DISTRICT COURT JUDGE

EQUAL JUSTICE & RESPECT FOR ALL

STRENGTHENING FAMILIES AND PROTECTING CHILDREN

STRENGTHENING FAMILIES AND PROTECTING CHILDREN

Ensuring prompt, unbiased, and fair rulings while starting court dockets on time and respecting every individual’s time and constitutional rights. Dockets will start on time, juror wait times will be kept to a minimum, and cases will move efficiently.

STRENGTHENING FAMILIES AND PROTECTING CHILDREN

STRENGTHENING FAMILIES AND PROTECTING CHILDREN

STRENGTHENING FAMILIES AND PROTECTING CHILDREN

  Streamlining the court process in Dependency, Neglect, and Abuse (DNA) cases to safely reunify families and ensure children are supported in stable environments. Holding parents accountable for supporting their children financially and ensuring kids get to school every day.

ACCOUNTABILITY & COMMUNITY SAFETY

ACCOUNTABILITY & COMMUNITY SAFETY

ACCOUNTABILITY & COMMUNITY SAFETY

 Holding repeat offenders accountable, enforcing parental responsibility (including child support and school attendance), and safeguarding our neighborhoods by commonsense bond rulings. 

SMART JUSTICE

ACCOUNTABILITY & COMMUNITY SAFETY

ACCOUNTABILITY & COMMUNITY SAFETY

I know that simply locking people up doesn't fix the core problems in our community. I am a strong proponent of Veterans Treatment Court, Mental Health Court, and Drug Court. Addressing addiction and mental health issues directly breaks the revolving door of the criminal justice system far better than incarceration alone.
