Favorite APABA-PA Memory: Too many to mention here, but on the top of list would be the Lunar Banquets over the years and the festivities afterward.

One way APABA-PA has helped you: APABA-PA provided me with an amazing circle of friends and a constantly supportive professional network. I would not be where I am today, both professionally and personally, without APABA-PA.

When I’m not at APABA-PA events or working I’m…: recharging, spending time with family and friends, and/or Netflix.

If I weren’t a lawyer I’d be: Maybe a college instructor or professor.
Favorite Lunch Spot: When I’m in Philly, it’s the food court in Liberty Place. They have so many options, and it’s fast.
