What do you enjoy most about your work?
I enjoy being a problem-solver and helping people find peace of mind in the midst of complexity. Our clients have high expectations and sophisticated needs, and I value the opportunity to think creatively and strategically on their behalf. What makes it especially rewarding is the mutual trust and long-term relationships we’ve built over time.
What do you enjoy outside of the office?
Outside of work, you’ll find me running, exploring new hiking trails, golfing, or reading a great book. I love quiet time in nature, whether that’s a sunset walk in the foothills or discovering a new national park. My perfect day would start with waking up without an alarm, enjoying a homemade breakfast, and fitting in a round of golf at my favorite local course before winding down with good food, good company, and time outdoors. I’m also a bit competitive with the New York Times daily games, which I take (probably too) seriously. Most importantly, I value time with my family – we’re a close-knit group who find joy and laughter in the small, everyday moments.
What is your greatest accomplishment?
Graduating from CU Law School and passing the Colorado bar exam on my first attempt. It was one of the most demanding and personally challenging periods of my life, and there were moments I wanted to quit – but I stuck with it. That experience shaped how I face challenges today and taught me the value of resilience and long-term thinking.
Greatest extravagance under $50?
A good book that is too good to put down!
