My Personal Background
My family has been contributing to the Encinitas community for almost a century. My husband and I feel lucky to be raising our children in the same community that my great-grandma raised her family.

I worked as a reporter for the Los Angeles Times and the Associated Press before co-founding my own law firm. I've been a member of the Encinitas Traffic & Public Safety Commission for the last 4 years.
