In 2013, I went through a rough divorce from my partner of nine years, and it completely blindsided me. Despite having a law degree under my belt, I quickly discovered that there was so much I didn’t know about the divorce process and its pitfalls, and I was dismayed to find that there were very few tools and resources available to people navigating divorce.


In response, I chose to turn my pain into my purpose and founded Navigating the Knot in 2017 with the mission of providing education and support to others surrounding marriage and divorce.

When I’m not assisting clients, I enjoy rock climbing, running, hiking, snowboarding, and mountain biking. I love to travel, spend time with my family and our pups (a puggle named Clover and a brindle mix named Loki), and forge new connections.
