I am a real estate attorney who advises clients and lenders in all aspects of residential and commercial real estate matters, land use planning, and estate planning. I frequently represent clients before each of Nantucket’s Administrative Boards including The Zoning Board of Appeals, Historic District Commission, Conservation Commission, and Planning Board. I occasionally represent clients in real property disputes and litigation.

I grew up In Glen Falls, New York and I am a 1992 graduate of Glens Falls High School. I graduated from St. Lawrence University in Canton, New York in 1996 where I earned my degree with a double major in Government and Environmental Science.
