After many meaningful and rewarding years practicing law and mediating disputes, I am stepping away from professional practice. It has been an honor to work alongside colleagues who bring skill, integrity, and heart to this profession. I am deeply grateful for the trust so many of you placed in me—entrusting your cases, your clients, and often your most challenging moments.

This is not a retirement from purpose, merely a shift in focus. I will be devoting my time and energy to land conservation in the Pacific Northwest, continuing the work that has long grounded me and offered a deep sense of connection and responsibility.

There will also be plenty of hiking, mountain biking, fly fishing, and backcountry skiing whenever the spirit moves me.

Thank you for the collaboration, the conversations, and the shared commitment to resolving conflict with care, in whatever venues our clients’ needs required. The relationships I’ve built through this work have been a true privilege, and I carry that gratitude with me as I begin this next chapter.
