Personal
I was born and raised in suburban Boston, Massachusetts where I attended great public schools and swam competitively.
Between college and law school, I served in the Peace Corps. My initial assignment was in Uzbekistan. Unfortunately, after months of intensive language training and work in local public schools, the Peace Corps was forced to leave the country for political reasons; I ended up starting over again in Transylvania, Romania as a teacher in both Romanian and Hungarian language secondary schools.
Attending Tulane Law school in New Orleans, LA was a unique experience. Much like the city itself, a melange of cultures and peoples, my time was spent between rigorous study and enjoying the city’s unique offerings. When studies were complete, you might have found me at Tipitina’s, the Maple Leaf, City Park, or the Country Club.
Over the past twelve years, I have been working and living in Boston. In addition to gaining a great familiarity with local practice, I have been involved in various civic endeavors and political affairs.
I am proud to have received citations from the Boston City Council, MA House of Representatives and MA Senate.
