MODERN AGE EMPLOYMENT LAW
It’s right there in the name: Modern Age Employment Law.
What does that mean—Modern Age?
Modern means something that you haven’t seen before.
Modern means nimble.
Modern means authentic.
Modern means personalized and relationship-based.
Modern means dedicated.
Modern means practical.
And maybe a bit more fun and irreverent than you're used to from a lawyer.
The kind of lawyer you don’t dread having to call.
In my 24+ years of being an employment lawyer, I've seen the best and worst of how to deliver employment law and HR services. And the clients I want to work with deserve better than what they've seen before. I’m committed to delivering that.
I am an employment lawyer for three reasons:
(1) I love the intellectual stimulation and challenge;
(2) I love working with people to help them solve their companies' employment law and human resources challenges; and
(3) I know that what I do makes workplaces more fair, equitable, and tolerant.
I consider myself very lucky that I am able to do what I do.
Plain and simple: I love being an employment lawyer. And this shows in how I do my job.

PHASE 1
In which, after 10 years as a lawyer in one of the country's preeminent employment law firms, culminating in making partner in 2007, I looked around at what I had achieved and realized it wasn’t for me.
-
PHASE 2
In which I decided to take a break from practicing law to explore another path. I spent two years as a certified personal trainer, loving every minute of it, but eventually missing many things about practicing employment law and looking for the right way to get back to it.
-
PHASE 3
In which fate stepped in at just the right moment and I began working at Employers Council. There, for 11 years, I worked with the most dedicated and talented group of employment lawyers, HR professionals, and administrative staff, in our small Utah office, helping the most caring and hard-working companies in Utah and beyond become the best employers they could.

PHASE 4
In which I realize that I’ve seen the best and worst of how to deliver employment law and HR services, and decide that you deserve better. And that I’m committed to delivering that.
