When I'm not working, I enjoy relaxing with my dogs, cooking, walking, and knitting.

I have worked for Maylene Abad for over five years, beginning as a legal assistant before becoming a licensed attorney in September 2025. I knew I wanted to be a lawyer as early as high school, when I read Marbury v. Madison and was fascinated by the reasoning the Supreme Court used to establish the practice of judicial review. Like Maylene, I have experience handling bankruptcy, real estate, and probate matters.
