Personal Note

I became an attorney because my life experience and interests made it suitable to pursue. I did not love lawyering until I became a workers’ compensation attorney.
I was born in Kansas City, Missouri and raised in Los Angeles. As a teen I wanted to be a Pastry Chef. I am a father of two young adults. My son, Karl, is a tennis player at the University of Hawaii. My daughter, Ivy, just graduated high school and attends Napa Valley College with an emphasis on the Spanish language.
