My Story

Prior to opening up my firm I honed my skills in the tax industry for seven years, representing all types of taxpayers from individuals and small business owners to Fortune 500 companies. In December of 2022, I left Willkie Farr Gallagher, LLP, with a mission to connect with every client I represent. 

After I received my Tax LL.M. (Master of Laws) from the Georgetown University Law Center, I clerked for the Honorable Ronald Lee Buch of the U.S. Tax Court. Since my time at the Tax Court, I honed mskills in the various areas of the legal profession. I began my career in the international corporate tax group at PricewaterhouseCoopers in New York, NY, where I gained insight into tax law from the compliance perspective. I partnered with corporate tax planning and operations teams to assist in the compliance of large corporate taxpayers and defense of their positions on audit.

 

Since my time at the accounting firm, I worked in "Big Law" and represented individuals, corporations, and partnerships at all stages of an IRS examination, at appeals, and Tax Court in connection with federal income tax reporting and charitable contribution deductions.

I received my Tax LL.M. (Master of Laws) from the Georgetown University Law Center on a merit scholarship. During that time, I spent a semester as a research fellow at the Council on State Taxation and another semester as a student extern at Pillsbury. I received my J.D. from the University of Nebraska College of Law with distinction. I received my B.A. in Economics from the University of Colorado-Denver with University honors.

When I am not working, my husband and I are constantly on the go. Due to his time in the U.S. Marine Corps, we volunteer at various veteran organizations in addition to Experience Camp, a camp for children that have lost a parent or guardian. For fun we practice photography and go kayaking.

I love my job as a tax attorney and my favorite part is being a reliable source of information and a steady hand for my clients.
