I joined Hendler Flores Law in the summer of 2022 as a Legal Assistant, making a commitment to ensure diversity, efficiency, and that marginalized voices are heard. In my current role, I focus on assisting the paralegal team and fellow legal assistants with obtaining and reviewing records, correspondence, and administrative work. I also assist with legal research, drafting, and supporting attorneys at meetings, depositions, mediations, and trials throughout the country.

I graduated from New York University’s (NYU) College of Arts and Science in 2020 with a Bachelor of Arts in Politics and a minor in Psychoanalysis. My academic concentration was focused on data science, public policy, and American politics. While at NYU, I worked as a campaign intern for The Democratic Coalition Against Trump, library assistant at NYU’s Law Library, and became the Vice President of NYU’s debate team. After graduation, I continued coaching debate in Manhattan and later became a consultant and speech writer for a facility in Canada before joining the team.

In my free time, I enjoy playing online video games and can most likely be found reading up on critical race theory or conducting research. I consider myself a big news buff and prioritize spending time with either my family or on advocacy. I also have a 1st-degree black belt in Taekwondo and love participating in competitive point-sparring.
