I was born and raised in Kansas City, Missouri to a family of lawyers. After growing up in a courtroom watching my dad and grandfather try cases on behalf of injured plaintiffs, from the age of five-on, my answer when asked what I wanted to be when I grew up was always the same – a trial attorney. After law school at Duke, despite only knowing a handful of folks out on the West Coast, I packed my bags and moved out to Los Angeles to pursue a legal career in the most exciting legal market in the U.S. (and catch some sun while doing it).
Prior to joining Panish |Shea | Ravipudi LLP, I worked at international law firm Kirkland & Ellis, where I specialized in multidistrict products liability litigation. After my stint on the dark side of the bar, I joined the firm in January 2022, and haven’t looked back.
I now live in Marina Del Rey with my girlfriend Alex. In my free time, you’ll find me knocking down doors trying to find good barbecue in Los Angeles to get a taste of home (if you haven’t tried it, Kansas City BBQ is world-famous). I also enjoy hiking, live music, and reading spy novels, and have recently taken up surfing and skiing though both remain works in progress.

He was personally trained by the fabled trial lawyer Gerry Spence. In his younger years he also studied with such legendary trial attorneys as Race Horse Haynes, Joe Jamail, and Wild Bill Sellers.
