When I graduated from law school, I knew I did not want to practice family law. I envisioned couples who would go to extreme lengths, determined to make the other party miserable. However, I quickly came to realize that there are many people searching for a family law attorney who can help them reach solutions, rather than igniting a war. In 2017, I learned about the Collaborative Law model. This model uses a team approach to help couples get the financial, emotional, and legal help that they need. When couples can work together, it improves the outcome, not only during the initial divorce but also post-divorce. This is especially true when couples have children, since they will be co-parenting for the rest of their lives. In addition to traditional areas of family law, I keep up to date with novel areas of the law, including embryo donation, embryo adoption, and disputes over embryos in the context of divorce. When I am not working, I enjoy spending time with my husband, riding my electric bike, running, visiting Denver's local coffee shops, and hiking.

I am a veteran solo entrepreneur. I knew it was time to make a career change a few years ago, but I needed to prepare. I wanted to know whether or not I could make money doing something new. I sought coaching to help me connect to a new purpose, deal with my limiting beliefs, and visualize a different future. I became an ICF-credentialed coach in the process.
I planned to transition a very lucrative 16-year-old publishing business into the coaching business of my dreams. As I moved forward with my plans, my husband ended our 27-year marriage.
Divorce upends everything familiar. And, depending on age, considerations are different. I'm sensitive to unique situations and work with my clients to limit stress and expense so they can focus on a life-affirming future.
