I got my undergraduate degree in geography, with an emphasis in travel and tourism, from BYU.  Since there weren’t a lot of college-graduate jobs available in travel and tourism, I worked in supply chain management for a few years before going back to BYU for law school, where I graduated magna cum laude and was a senior editor of the law review. 

​

I started my legal career in insurance/malpractice defense, and that experience comes in handy when disputes arise in probate, trust, or guardianship matters.  As you can imagine, family disputes over estates and trusts are not uncommon. 

 

When I'm not working, my favorite thing to do is spend time with my wife and four kids, and if I happen to have any time left over, it often gets spent on our saltwater aquarium.  I also enjoy cooking and I collect period travel posters.
