I am a 1980 graduate of St. Vincent College in Latrobe, Pennsylvania with a B.A. In English. I was likewise certified to teach 7-12 grade English, and between my graduation in December and my entrance to law school in August 1981, I worked as a substitute teacher for several school districts in the area. In law school, I taught legal research and writing.
I have successfully advocated both in writing and in person before Courts of Common Pleas and appellate courts throughout Western Pennsylvania in both criminal and civil matters, including jury trials.
For three consecutive years, I coached the countywide mock trial competition in Butler County, Pennsylvania, and my students finished in first place every year. Among my most prized possessions are the appreciation plaques given to me by my students in those competitions, which I proudly and prominently display in my office.
I consider it personally rewarding to assist students in forming and articulating precise, persuasive, and direct expressions of their positions, opinions, and propositions. I am happy to be of assistance.
