I am an attorney at the Lommen Abdo law firm in Minneapolis. At Lommen, I practice civil litigation, primarily in professional liablity defense and commercial litigation. Most of my clients are lawyers, accountants, and a variety of other professionals.
I received my JD from the University of St. Thomas School of Law in 2006 and a BA in political science from Carroll College in Helena, Montana.
