Personal Interests & Charitable Work

I am a founding board member of Union Capital Boston, a growing, local nonprofit that’s quickly making a name for itself as an innovative program for low-income communities to build social capital. I also enjoy having a diverse pro bono practice, involving immigration law, public benefits litigation, and supporting small business. Outside of work, I like sports, music, the outdoors, and just about anything irreverent. I've been dabbling in writing and stand-up.
