Before Tracy and I built this firm together, I spent more than a decade as an electrical engineer. I worked on systems for commercial nuclear power plants with Rolls-Royce, training simulators for the Navy's nuclear submarines and aircraft carriers, and satellite programs at Northrop Grumman.

The common thread in that work: nobody gets partial credit. A system either performs when it's needed or it doesn't, and a small oversight can have enormous consequences.

​Estate planning is the same. Your plan has to work on the hardest day your family will ever have — often years after it was signed, when you're not there to explain it. That's why I care so much about how this firm runs behind the scenes: how documents get reviewed, how deadlines get tracked, how quickly your calls get returned, and how you find out what's happening at every step. The attorneys handle the law. I make sure nothing around it falls through the cracks.

I'm a proud Pennsylvanian and studied electrical engineering at Gannon University. Tracy and I live in Peters Township with our two kids, Madelyn and Owen, and our dogs, Maverick and Belle. When I'm not at the office, you'll find me at Penguins games or on the golf course trying to break 90.

​We're a local, family-run firm, and we treat the families we work with the way we'd want our own family treated.
