I grew up working for my family's sand and gravel operation in Akron, Ohio. I then obtained a degree in geology and worked as a geotechnical geologist before attending law school at Northwestern University. For over twenty years, I have lived and worked in Phoenix (and Flagstaff when I can). Throughout my career, I have had the good fortune to assist clients building the infrastructure to support Arizona's growth. In my free time, I enjoy spending time with my family and being outdoors as much as possible.
