Narrative

After graduating Phi Beta Kappa from Smith College in Massachusetts, I obtained my law degree from Cornell Law School.

For over 20 years, I have practiced law and have found my passion to lie in representing injured victims of negligence. I am proud to be the voice within the legal system for my clients. Because of my education and opportunities in life I am afforded the honor to do that - I believe that is the basis of our legal system.

There is no greater honor than taking the time to get to know my clients and to ensure they understand the details of the legal process they are participating in and all aspects of their case in particular. Each time a client enters my offices, it is my commitment to educate them on their case and to explain the details of what is to come. When that client leaves my office, it is my goal to have answered all their questions and to instill within them confidence in their decision of choosing Cellino & Barnes.

After joining Cellino & Barnes, it became quite obvious that the firm holds their clients in high regard. I am surrounded by the best attorneys in Western New York, attorneys that have the same values and give the same commitment and compassion to representing their clients as I do.

In addition to my career as a personal injury attorney, I am committed to the arts. Not only do I and support the Corning Glass Museum & School, but I am a silver smith and have put my artwork on display. I also practice yoga and am a dance instructor.

In every aspect of my life, I give 110% in my studies, to my family, in the arts, and most importantly to you. It is my honor to represent you.
