Certified Specialists in Estate Planning, Trust & Probate Law,

Prior to opening this firm with my partner Kristen Ingersoll, I was a partner at Beyers | Costin PC, and before that, with Lanahan & Reilley LLP for several years.
During law school, I completed a portion of my studies in Rome, Italy. Also at that time, I clerked for the Honorable John R. Padova, United States District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania. I have also previously clerked in both the General Counsel’s Office for Temple University, and the General Counsel’s Office for the National Security Agency.
Prior to attending law school, I served on active duty in the United States Air Force as an intelligence analyst, and thereafter served in the Air Force Reserve until retirement in 2018, with the rank of Lieutenant Colonel.
