Experience
From 2015 until my election to the bench, I worked as an Assistant Montgomery County Public Defender representing indigent criminal defendants at the trial and appellate levels. before that, I practiced civil litigation at the law firm of Dinsmore & Shohl. I also served as Director of the Race & Justice Project at the Ohio Justice & Policy Center.
Montgomery County Court of Common Pleas, General Division - December 2022 to the present
I was a practicing attorney for 18 years before being elected in 2022. I had criminal, civil and appellate experience that prepared me for handling the types of cases that are heard in our common pleas courts.
I was honored to be elected in 2022 and would like to continue serving our community as a judge. I am committed to honoring the dignity of all citizens who appear before the court and to carrying out the equitable administration of justice. I also believe that the bench should be inclusive and representative of the community it serves. The court is making decisions that can have a huge impact on a person's life and so I work very hard to apply the law fairly and accurately to each person and case that is heard in my courtroom.
