About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To meet great people.

ABOUT ME

I'm a lawyer from New York, now living in Portland, Oregon. I have a partner and two kids (turning 8 and 3 in 2020.)
II help poor people defend themselves against injustice in a small city (Portland). I mostly love where I live, though it's pretty quiet. I enjoy meeting people from other cultures and learning from them. I speak Spanish a fair amount and want to improve it.
PHILOSOPHY

I learn best from talking with and listening to other people. I believe that everyone deserves respect and dignity.
