I graduated from Indiana University School of Law - Indianapolis in 2006. I began my legal career as an associate in a mid-sized law firm in southern Indiana. During the first five years, I worked primarily in our firm's litigation department. After that time, my practice evolved into more transactional-type work involving real estate and contracts. Although I enjoyed this area of practice, I missed the "one-on-one" meetings and consultations I had with my clients.

I joined the offices of Stephenson Disability Services in 2013 because it allowed me to focus 100% of my time and attention on Social Security Disability, an area of law devoted to helping others at a time in their life when they often need it the most. I have successfully handled cases in Indiana, Kentucky and Ohio, and am authorized to appear for cases nationwide.

I am originally from Harrison County, Indiana. I currently reside in Jackson County with my wife, two daughters and our dog. In my spare time, I enjoy running, hiking, golfing and fishing (although not always in that order).
