How do you serve your local community?
I founded my law firm 16 years ago and value having a personal relationship with my clients to guide them as best as I can. I also cultivate relationships to increase support for organizations that mean a lot to me. I took an eight-year hiatus from formally practicing law to raise my children. During that time, I became very involved in several organizations in Greenwich. My work with the Junior League of Greenwich led to my involvement with many other non-profits most notably as a Board Member of the American Red Cross, Metro New York North Chapter since 2016 as Nominating Chair and on the Community Preparedness Committee; Greenwich Old Timers Athletic Association (GOTA) Board Member since 2018 as Donation Chair and now First Vice-President of the organization and as a committee member on the Friends of the Wallace Center Board as well as a few years on the Advisory Board for Abilis. I am also a longtime supporter of Planned Parenthood serving on their luncheon committee. I am also a regular contributor to Special Education Legal Fund’s monthly webinars, I participate on various panels speaking on Estate Planning and Business Law as well as presenting to the Greenwich High School PTA on legal issues
What do you love about living in Greenwich?
I love living in a Town that has a real sense of Community and a strong sense of volunteerism and give back throughout every stage of life. I value our small businesses and try to support them as much as I can, they are the lifeblood of this community. It is because of this Community that we are so fortunate to have wonderful restaurants, diverse shopping, an incredible museum, and beautiful parks and beaches.
What is your favorite hidden gem in town?
Tod's Point is one of the main reasons we decided to raise our family here and live on the eastern side of town. Another would be the Greenwich Skating Club - my son started his love of hockey and being a goaltender there. The cutest, quaintest little outside rink with a lot of community and passion for the sport.
