I am running to become a District Court judge because that is where most people will come into the Court system. I have had my own private practice for 18 years and have represented over 3.000 clients from Traffic Court to the U.S. Supreme Court and I have seen what a difference it makes when you have a fair judge on the bench.
  • I will treat everyone who comes in front of my as an individual and all will treated fairly no matter their social or economic status.
  • A judge needs to know the law, have practiced the law and have a deep knowledge of the law.
  • Experience matters
I believe that everyone should be treated fairly under the law and that is not a slogan, it is the way I have practiced law for the last 18 years.
My first job out of college was as a Peace Corps volunteer in Morocco. I served for 2 years.
I believe that everyone should be treated equally under the law, no matter their race, gender, sexual orientation or social status.
Yes, as the decisions of judges will directly impact the people in front of them.
I am running for this seat as I believe that the people of Jefferson County are best represented by a Judge who has been practicing law for 18 years and have had cases from Traffic Court to the U.S. Supreme Court.
No, but a judge should have been practicing law for at least 10 years as an attorney so that they know the law.
