University of Denver

If you weren’t a lawyer, what would you be?

I’m currently binging both The Sopranos and Mr. Robot.

Singing (badly) in my car during my commute.

What accomplishment are you most proud of?

My arguments before the Colorado Supreme Court.

The collective joy among my friends when we finished civil procedure.

I reread Stephen King’s Pet Sematary every fall.

Swimming, playing piano, listening to comedy podcasts (highly recommend both So True with Caleb Hearon and Las Culturistas)
