What about construction law interests you?
I am interested in the process of construction — how structures are built well (and sometimes how they are built poorly). I also really enjoy working with the folks in the construction industry. I like to work with people who build things. They tend to be practical problem-solvers. And I respect and enjoy working with and against my colleagues in the construction law bar, which is an outstanding group.

What led you to become a trial lawyer? Circumstances. I was fortunate to back into a job that I love. I started out pre-med, switched to finance and business school, and then applied to law school on a bit of whim. And here I am.
