About Me

Litigator, Geek, Technophile

I grew up in Miami, Florida, and along the way, I met my wife. At the time, I was living in Tallahassee, and she was in Montana. I visited her often, and it didn’t take long to know she was the one I wanted to spend the rest of my life with. I became the luckiest guy in the world and she somehow agreed to marry me. We got engaged, married, and she moved to Florida with while I finished school at Florida State University.

From there, life took us to Laramie, Wyoming for law school, then to Colorado, where I started practicing as an attorney. In Colorado, I experienced winter for the first time in nearly 28 years. Fresh snow still feels a little magical, even if shoveling it is far less exciting than watching it fall. It is a world away from the heat of Florida, and despite the extra work that comes with winter, I would not trade it for anything.

Outside of law, I have always been drawn to technology, not just as a tool but as something to build, refine, and push beyond its limits. I love programming and design, and I am always working on something new, whether it is streamlining workflows, automating tedious tasks, or making something work better. Right now, I am building my own language model, Atticus, a project that combines my legal background with my love for development. Taking an idea, breaking it down, and turning it into something functional has always been how I work, whether it is a legal argument or a piece of software.

When I need a break from the screen, I spend time tinkering with cars. I like making them run better, sound better, and go faster. There is always something to improve, whether it is dialing in a little extra power, fine-tuning the handling, or just figuring out how to make everything work more efficiently. It is part problem-solving, part hands-on work, and all about getting the most out of the machine. And when it all comes together, there is nothing better than taking it out on a winding mountain road, windows down, just enjoying the drive.

Then COVID changed everything. Remote work became the norm and allowed the legal world to evolve, making it possible to practice law from nearly anywhere. That shift opened new opportunities, and my wife and I took the chance to move to Montana, a place we had always wanted to call home. Even though I now live out of state, I still travel back to Colorado regularly for trials and to stay connected to the legal community there. It is a balance that lets me keep doing the work I enjoy while living in a place that truly feels like home.

Family Law Development Projects

Child Support Calculator

I'm building a child support calculator that follows Colorado guidelines and generates a clear, printable worksheet. Right now, attorneys rely on expensive software for these calculations, but this tool makes the process accessible to both parents and attorneys. It provides accurate results in a straightforward format without the need for costly applications.

Parenting Time Calendar

I'm building a calendaring application for parents and attorneys to create a clear, visual schedule of parenting time. It generates a printable calendar that accurately reflects custody arrangements, making it easy to track time with children and avoid disputes. The goal is to keep things simple, practical, and useful for anyone managing a parenting schedule.

Sworn Financial Statement Generator

I'm developing an online tool tailored for Colorado residents involved in dissolution or child support cases. This platform streamlines the creation of Sworn Financial Statements, helping compliance with the state's mandatory disclosure requirements as outlined in Form 35.1. By guiding users through the necessary financial disclosures, the tool simplifies the process, making it more accessible and inexpensive for individuals navigating these legal proceedings.
