What Motivates Me Right Now: Bringing in new hires and watching them succeed is really satisfying for me. I am motivated every day by seeing members of our team try things they didn’t think they could do, grow from the experience, then excel. One of the most satisfying and motivational moments for me is when I see someone we hired as an intern become a partner in the firm.

My Leadership Style: My leadership style revolves around building trust. Everything stems from that. Trust creates and nurtures a culture of openness and honesty. It allows for inclusion and making everyone feel heard and seen. 

Outside of Work You’ll Find Me: When I can find the time, I’ll be on the golf course. While it’s a challenging sport, there is something about it and the perspective it gives me. It’s about accepting the good with the bad and learning how to laugh through it.
