Attorney Bio

I grew up in Missouri and spent a majority of my youth working and playing on a farm that my family owned. We lived in the suburbs of Saint Louis, but I never missed an opportunity to go to the farm. I built fence, bailed hay, and crop farmed. I learned the value of hard work.

After high school, I went to college, but quit after a year to go to work as a laborer for a large construction company. After a couple of years, I went back to college and then to law school at the University of Missouri. I paid my way through school by working in agriculture and construction.

During my last semester of law school I was offered a job in Farmington, NM. Immediately after graduation in May 1985, I moved to Farmington. I have been here ever since.

For 33 years I have enjoyed representing individuals and families through their toughest times. I have practiced in the personal injury and Workers’ Compensation areas continuously since being licensed. I spent many years of my practice representing debtors in bankruptcy and individuals in construction disputes. Since 2005, I have focused entirely on personal injury and Workers’ Compensation.

I love what I do and am always thrilled when I am able to help someone get through the tough times.
