I am originally from a farm in California's Central Valley where my family has been growing raisins for generations. After I left to go to Chico State for college, I was introduced to the legal system and endeavored to obtain my paralegal certificate. After college, I returned home and began my work as a paralegal focusing on elder rights. I soon discovered the impact dedicated advocacy can have on people’s lives and realized I had to become a lawyer. My path eventually took me to Pepperdine Law School where I worked two jobs to make ends meet. One of those gigs was a firm helping those who have been catastrophically injured. I’ve been hooked ever since. My passion for my clients led to the opportunity to join the great trial lawyers at Panish | Shea | Ravipudi LLP. I am also a huge nerd for our national parks and have road tripped to 20 of them so far (with many more to come). Yoga practice, a heated chess match, and long dog walks are my favorite pastimes.
