What do you enjoy about being an attorney?
My favorite part about being an attorney is that every day is different and every project is a different puzzle. There’s no “one size fits all” solution, which can be challenging, but also keeps my life interesting.

Where would we find you on a typical Saturday/Sunday?
My son is a year and a half, so we’re up early (with the help of lots of coffee) and then trying to keep up with him the rest of the day – whether at the zoo, a park, or just around the neighborhood. 

What is the simplest thing you never learned to do?
I’ve always been jealous of people who can whistle using just their thumb and finger. I’ve spent more time than I’d like to admit trying, but have never been able to get the hang of it.
