About Me

I am a JD candidate at Yale Law School specializing in criminal law, tenant rights, and trial advocacy. I'm also a freelance writer—most recently, I was at NPR assisting with their Supreme Court coverage.

Before law school, I worked as a paralegal at a real estate law firm and did tenant organizing. I've continued that work in New Haven, where I am a member of the Connecticut Tenant's Union. I also represent tenants facing eviction through Yale's Housing Clinic. This year, I will brief and argue an eviction-related case before the Connecticut Supreme Court.

I attended the University of Virginia for undergrad. I graduated with Highest Distinction in 2023, while working nights as a well-paid bartender and unpaid stand-up comedian.
