My Story
Before law school, I was a union organizer. I've seen firsthand what happens when working people don't have representation — and what happens when they do.
I joined Mitchell Law because Sarah shares my belief that good legal help shouldn't be a privilege. We take cases other firms pass on. We fight battles other lawyers say can't be won.
My practice focuses on employment law and workplace injuries. When your employer cuts corners and you pay the price, I'm the one who makes them answer for it.
When I'm not in the office, I coach youth basketball in Park Hill and badly attempt to play guitar.
