Practical Guidance at the Intersection of Employment Law and Human Resources
Throughout my career, I've believed the best workplace decisions happen when legal guidance and practical HR experience work together.
Before becoming an employment attorney, I spent more than 20 years leading Human Resources for organizations across multiple industries. During that time, I partnered with executives, managers, and employees to navigate complex workplace challenges, build strong HR foundations, and develop practical solutions that balanced compliance with business objectives.
Over the years, I repeatedly saw organizations struggle because HR and legal advice often existed in separate silos. HR professionals focused on operational realities. Attorneys focused on legal risk. Yet the best workplace decisions required both perspectives.
That experience ultimately led me to law school.
I didn't become an attorney to leave Human Resources behind. I became an attorney because I wanted to provide more complete guidance to employers—guidance that considers legal obligations, business objectives, and the real-world impact workplace decisions have on people and organizations.
Today, I combine executive HR experience with employment law to help employers navigate workplace challenges with confidence, clarity, and practical solutions.
My Approach
I believe the best legal and HR advice is proactive rather than reactive.
Many workplace issues can be addressed long before they become disputes. By partnering with employers early, I help organizations strengthen their HR practices, reduce legal risk, and navigate difficult employment decisions before they become costly problems.
Whether serving as workforce advisor or employment counsel, my goal is the same: to become a trusted advisor who helps leaders make thoughtful decisions that support both their organizations and their people.
