I hail from a small town in northeast Ohio. While in elementary school, my father was stationed at Langley Air Force Base (now Joint Base Langley-Eustis), and even as a child, I knew this area was special. I fell in love with Hampton Roads so much that, after joining the ranks of the most dominant air power in the world myself, I chose it as my first option for permanent duty. After completing two enlistments, I pursued my childhood dream of becoming an attorney—a goal inspired by too many Matlock and Perry Mason reruns—and graduated from Regent Law.
With experience in both the corporate world as in-house counsel and in private practice, I’ve had the privilege of helping clients navigate a wide range of legal issues. What I love most about my legal practice is connecting with my clients, hearing their stories, and crafting solutions that make a real difference in their lives. Whether I’m drafting estate documents for legacy planning or assisting a business with its next entrepreneurial step, my goal is always to help my clients get where they want to be. I find it truly inspiring how a few words on a blank page can change someone’s life.
I currently live in Hampton with my wonderful wife and three of our four children. My wife and I are actively involved in our church’s children’s ministry, and in my free time, I enjoy college football, movie quotes, and spending quality time with my family.
