How I represent clients at Schwabe
I focus on guiding clients through natural resource and Indian law matters. My work encompasses a variety of issues, from environmental compliance and real estate matters to Indian trust land.
In law school, I participated in the American Indian Law Journal as well as the Immigration Law Clinic. I have interned with several Seattle legal nonprofits and a local tribe.
In 2022, I gained valuable practical experience as a Summer Associate at Schwabe, which enhanced my skills and knowledge in real estate and natural resources law.
