With a diverse background in military and human resources management, I bring a unique combination of leadership, HR expertise, and legal knowledge. I have extensive experience in HR Information Systems (HRIS), policy development, and previously worked for the Coast Guard CSC NAF (non-appropriated fund) managing Longshore and Harbor Workers Compensation claims. My career began as a Human Resource Officer in the U.S. Army, where I developed skills in strategic planning and personnel management, which I later applied as Human Resource Manager. In addition, I hold a Senior Professional in Human Resources (SPHR) certification.Now, as a licensed attorney in the Commonwealth of Virginia, I represent and advise clients in both Maritime & Admiralty and employment law matters. In the field of admiralty and maritime, I represent and advise clients on complex maritime insurance defense issues, maritime personal injury defense, and limitation of liability actions.
