In 1993, after graduating law school, I began my family law practice. My philosophy is direct: every client deserves legal representation that is equal parts compassion and straightforwardness. I always ensure that my client’s needs are heard and respected. Often called a financial bean counter by colleagues due to my thoroughness, I am the sole practitioner, which means my clients only work with me. I view my family law practice as a facilitator allowing families to begin the healing process. I provide special counsel for divorcing parents to ensure that their children are not adversely affected by the separation. Trained as a Family Law Mediator (2004) and currently a mediator for the Polk County District Court Mediation Program, I understand that clients come to my office during times of emotional turmoil. A firm supporter of Collaborative Law, my goal is to reach client resolution without going to court. I always provide an empathetic, accurate assessment of the facts to ensure each client arrives at the best possible solution. Receiving my undergraduate degree from Grand View College in Des Moines in 1988, I graduated Washburn University School of Law in Topeka, Kansas in 1992. I have been a member of the Iowa State Bar Association since 1993. Additionally, I was the co-editor of the Family Law Newsletter for the Iowa State Bar Association from (1997 to 2002), and currently is co-chair of the Polk County Bar Association Solo and Small Practice committee, active in the PCBA Family Law committee and serve as a member of the ISBA Board of Governors since 2013.
