Bio:I have been advocating for ADC clients since 2017. I most frequently provide written mitigation packets for plea negotiation, but I have also provided materials and support for sentencing and post-conviction hearings. I have specific experience presenting mitigation involving severe and persistent mental illness, perinatal maternal mental illness, developmental and complex trauma, childhood sexual trauma, childhood abuse and neglect, intellectual disability, and competency. I have a special interest in the late adolescent (ages 18-24) brain. I seek to develop a strong rapport with my clients by meeting with them frequently and including their unique voices in my finished product. I work closely with attorneys, investigators, and paralegals to ensure that what I provide is what is most helpful to the client and to the team as a whole.
