About

Before going to law school, I served in Afghanistan from 2009-2010 as a military police officer in the 300th Military Police Brigade of the United States Army. I received my honorable discharge from the service in 2016, and continue to have a passion for assisting veterans. I am an accredited attorney with the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs and assists veterans in the preparation, presentation, and prosecution of veterans’ benefits appeals, and other veteran-related issues. The VA accreditation program exists to ensure that Veterans and their family members receive appropriate representation on their VA benefits claims. VA accreditation is for the sole and limited purpose of preparing, presenting, and prosecuting claims before VA. If you are a veteran needing assistance with benefit claims, I can help. In my role at SSP, I concentrate in labor and employment law and commercial litigation. I enjoy the challenges of the ever-changing landscape of employment and labor law. If you need advice and guidance on employment related situations, I'd love the opportunity to talk with you.
