I chose the areas of law I practice because it  allows me to take advantage of Miami’s unique position as a hub for the exchange of culture, business, and legal work. Practicing in areas like cross border insolvency and arbitration allows me to gain a broad range of perspectives from clients across the globe.

3. What skills do you draw upon when it comes to your specific practice areas? The skills I draw upon in my practice areas are understanding how all the moving pieces of a case fit together and being flexible in order to deliver results for the client. Being able to understand how these pieces fit together keeps a case moving forward and being flexible permits adapting to changing circumstances in order to still deliver for a client.

4. What is the most rewarding part about your job? The most rewarding part of the job is being able to deliver for a client.

6. If you weren’t practicing law, what would you be doing? If I wasn’t practicing law, I’d either be a history professor or restoring classic American cars.

7. What might people be surprised to learn about you? People might be surprised to learn that I love to cook. Whether it be cooking steaks on a grill or making pasta from scratch, I enjoy trying new recipes and making different dishes.

8. What is a good book or article you read recently? A good book I read recently was : Cuba, An American History by Ada Ferrer. It explores the rich shared history between the two nations which can be often overlooked beyond the Castro-regime years.
