I joined Kayne Law Group in November 2007 when I returned home to Ohio after practicing law for over eight years in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. My practice in Pennsylvania included creditors' rights/bankruptcy, financing and corporate transactional work for national law firms and most recently three years as Corporate Attorney for Dick's Sporting Goods, Inc.

After first meeting my colleagues at Kayne Law Group, I knew this was the Firm I wanted to join. The collegial atmosphere, practical business sense, focus on high quality legal work, and true dedication to its clients are what I see as the hallmark principles of this Firm.

I received my Juris Doctor, with honors, from The Ohio State University College of Law in 1999 and graduated, summa cum laude and with honors, from St. Francis College (Loretto, PA) in 1996 with a Bachelor of Arts Degree in Political Science. I am admitted to the Ohio and Pennsylvania Bars.
