I am an Oregon and Washington state lawyer who added law as a career to find an additional way to help people, particularly those marginalized. I value integrity, connection, compassion, kindness, adventure, courage, a willingness to make mistakes, and playfulness. I want to live, and to help others to live, a rich, full, and meaningful life. May you find my sharing of resources of use.
