I grew up in Corning, New York, which is a small town upstate that, yes, at one time made Corningware. I went to the University of Michigan for undergrad and received a degree in English and Philosophy and was a member of the Gamma Phi Beta sorority. I also attended the University of Michigan Law School, because I enjoyed Ann Arbor so much. I moved to Chicago to begin practice in 2005 at Latham & Watkins where I specialized in consumer class action defense. I joined the Chicago office of Carlson Lynch in 2020 in order to begin working on the plaintiff’s side of consumer class actions. I currently live in Indiana with my partner, Eric Levy, and my elderly cat, Parker. In my spare time, we like to go out on Eric’s boats and I like to read.
