Biography

My legal practice is focused primarily on defending people who have been criminally accused. I also handle civil, domestic, and administrative litigation that may involve situations involving high conflict, injury, or criminal allegations.

I grew up in California and attended California State University โ€“ Bakersfield, where I earned a degree in Communications (Journalism), with a minor in Spanish. I then attended Law School at Western Michigan University โ€“ Cooley Law School, in Lansing, MI, where I graduated cum laude. In law school, I was on the Cooley Law Review, I volunteered as an advocate for Lansing Teen Court, and I did an internship at the Eaton County (MI) Prosecuting Attorneyโ€™s Office โ€“ Economic Crimes Unit. Additionally, during my last term of law school, I did a satellite externship at the Clark County (WA) Prosecuting Attorneyโ€™s Office. I am now a partner at Morse Busby Andrews & Terry LLP.

When I am not practicing law, I enjoy listening to and playing music, getting outdoors, biking, and spending time with friends and family.
