As a board-certified tax attorney, I specialize in federal and California tax law, representing clients before the Internal Revenue Service, Franchise Tax Board, and other California taxing agencies. My practice encompasses tax planning, negotiation, settlement, audit representation, administrative appeals, and court proceedings, with expertise in both domestic and international tax matters.

I hold an LL.M. in Taxation from Golden Gate University School of Law and served as an adjunct professor teaching real estate taxation. This academic experience enhances my ability to provide clear, practical solutions to complex tax challenges.

My commitment to the profession extends beyond private practice. I regularly engage in speaking events to make tax law more accessible and volunteer with the Justice and Diversity Center of the San Francisco Bar Association, receiving their Outstanding Volunteer Award from 2015 to 2020. As a Life Fellow of the American Bar Foundation, I contribute to advancing the legal profession's highest principles.
