Industry focus
I am committed to finding and executing cost-effective, long-term solutions that balance environmental and developmental needs.
How I represent clients at Schwabe
I assist clients in navigating a wide range of real estate matters, from leases and easements to encroachments, condemnation, property disputes, and related real estate litigation. A collaborative and strategic thinker, I provide legal guidance to those managing property. My clients include developers, landlords, commercial tenants, energy utilities, and timberland owners.
Prior to joining Schwabe, I interned with The Hon. Michael W. Mosman, U.S. District Court of Oregon. At the University of Florida Levin College of Law, I participated in both the mediation clinic and the environmental and community development clinic, where I enjoyed working with clients on meaningful real estate and environmental issues. I am currently a dedicated member of Schwabe’s Pro Bono Committee and its Women’s Initiative.
