ABOUT ME:

Graduate, class of ’78, of the University of Utah College of Law (now the S.J.Quinney College of Law) in Salt Lake City, Utah.  My undergraduate and graduate work was all in the area of psychology.

Admitted to the New York State Bar and to the Utah State Bar.  I am also a member of the Association of the Bar of the City of New York and of its Committee on Children and the Law.  I am a past president of the International Law Section of the Utah State Bar and served as an officer of the World Trade Association of Utah.  I also served on the state board of the League of Women Voters of Utah and the board of the Salt Lake Central City.

In New York, my work was in the areas of banking and corporate law.  I regularly serve as an arbitrator and mediator in securities and commercial disputes.

Grade school teacher in an international school in Europe for five years.  For two years I was a research assistant on a major psychiatric research project. 

I have three grown daughters and a grandson who was born in 2004. 

Returned to an active practice after a period of retirement.  Because personal experience has shown me the joy, the wonder, the deep, life-long  satisfaction of bringing a child into a safe and happy home, I am now practicing exclusively in the area of adoptions.
