My practice focuses solely on medical malpractice and birth trauma cases, in which I help patients get compensation for catastrophic injuries caused by medical error.  I studied biology and chemistry as an undergraduate, and completed the rigorous didactic and clinical education program for New York State's highest level of prehospital care providers, a paramedic. I worked as a Paramedic for six years in the City of Rochester, New York, where I diagnosed and treated thousands of patients in need of emergent medical and surgical intervention in the prehospital setting. This included everything from heart attacks, strokes, diabetic emergencies, delivering babies, burns, major trauma, electrocutions and critical care transports to routine non-emergency evaluations and care.

I then spent two years as a Tissue Procurement Specialist and Procurement Team Leader for the Rochester Eye and Human Parts Bank, where I performed sterile, surgical tissue procurement procedures, in the operating room, on tissue donors to recover transplantable joints and tissues for recipients across the country. During my undergraduate years, I worked in the operating room as an anesthesia technician and scrub-assist technician, and worked with Alzheimer's patients in a secured nursing facility. I also have experience in various areas of veterinary medicine and surgery with large and small animals. All of these experiences contribute to my understanding of broad medical and physiological concepts.

Additionally I help educate lawyers on certain areas of medical malpractice litigation that can be difficult to understand, such as the discovery and use of audit trail evidence in electronic medical records, and teach law students about medical malpractice law and litigation.

I am licensed to practice in Colorado, Maryland, Minnesota (inactive), California, and the District of Columbia.
