“I graduated Ramapo College in 2008 with a major in Spanish Language Studies and聽minor in Latin American Studies. Subsequent to graduation, I received my Juris Doctor聽from Seton Hall University School of Law in 2011.”

“Currently, I am an attorney at Hack, Piro, O’Day, Merklinger Wallace, and McKenna,聽located in Florham Park, NJ. I joined the firm as an associate in 2012. I practice聽primarily in civil litigation with an emphasis on the defense of general liability,聽commercial premises, automobile and product liability cases. I also handle the defense of聽criminal matters.”

“My ability to communicate in Spanish has been an absolute advantage in my career.聽It has greatly enhanced my ability to attract clients to the law firm, which is a valuable聽asset in a competitive market. I attempt to utilize my Spanish speaking skills as often as聽possible.”

“I also had the fortunate opportunity to study in Spain during my junior year at Ramapo聽College. It was by far the best experience in my life to date. I lived in a home stay and聽was able to learn so much about the Spanish culture. It has helped to see things from a聽different perspective. I am thankful that I was able to incorporate such a great experience聽into my studies.”
