What’s been your biggest professional accomplishment so far in your career?

I advocated for flexible policies and led others by example, demonstrating that it is more than possible to be a successful attorney, firm leader and parent. When COVID changed the practice of law, I shared with others how to use technology to advocate efficiently and effectively on behalf of clients.

How are you involved in the community?

I mentor both associates and summer associates. I also mentored a high school student through the Marian Work Study Program at Kolbe Cathedral High School during the 2023-2024 academic year, and am doing so again this year. I also coach my son’s basketball team and chaperone school field trips.

Why do you deserve to be a 40 Under Forty?

• Coordinated the firm’s first diversity survey, mentor associates, co-chair the Women’s Legal Network and advocate for work-life balance to better the mental health of attorneys.

• Was named a partner at Halloran Sage at the age of 33, and was named chair of the associates committee and elected to the Management Committee.

• I am the program chair of ALFA International’s Business Litigation Practice Group.

What do you like to do outside of work?

I enjoy spending time with family and friends, often hosting large groups, and am the one to plan gatherings. I enjoy spending time outside and can often be found tending to my vegetable garden, baking or enjoying time with my husband, sons and puppy, Copper.

Fun Fact

I played field hockey at DeSales University and was a member of the inaugural team.
