Hobbies
I have always enjoyed both teaching and practicing law. I have been a licensed attorney in California for 28 years. I have extensive experience in criminal defense, juvenile law, family law and administrative law. I graduated Law School with Honors and have several published Law Review Articles. I am a trained, credentialed, experienced teacher and I understand teaching principles; this is necessary for effective tutoring. I have raised two children and am familiar with the school system in Los Angeles (public and charter systems). As a hobby, I enjoy acting and have credits for film, television and theater. I also enjoy dance and playing with my three dogs!
