I am a former Assistant Public Defender with years of trial experience. I have litigated cases involving driving under the influence, assaults, drugs, thefts, sexual assaults and first degree murder. These experiences have given me an in depth understanding of the complex criminal justice system. My years as a trial attorney have helped me become a zealous advocate for those who need a voice. In addition to being a seasoned trial attorney, I have helped hundreds of clients negotiate dismissals, reduction of charges, and other favorable outcomes. I attended York College of Pennsylvania where I received a Bachelor of Arts Degree for History in 2009. I went on to obtain my Juris Doctorate degree from Widener School of Law in Wilmington, Delaware. Throughout my law school career, I received accolades for trial advocacy and oral arguments. In April 2013, I accepted a position with the Dauphin County Public Defender's Office. During my tenure there I represented clients at all stages of the criminal justice system, from preliminary hearings through jury trials and appeals. While in the Public Defender's Office, I was a liaison to the Dauphin County Drug Court Program and was in charge of state revocation appeals to the Pennsylvania Board of Probation and Parole. I have also argued before the Superior and Supreme Courts of Pennsylvania.
Criminal defense attorneys represent individuals accused of crimes, protecting their constitutional rights throughout the legal process. They work to achieve the best possible outcome through negotiation or trial. Common matters include dui/dwi, drug charges, assault, theft.
