Biographical Information
I earned my Bachelor’s degree in Music Education (yes, that’s right!) from Wagner College, Staten Island, NY, my Juris Doctor degree from Seton Hall School of Law, Newark, NJ, and my MBA in Accounting from Fairleigh Dickinson University, in Madison, NJ.
I am a licensed attorney, State of New Jersey, however I do not practice law at this time. My full-time work is as assistant chair and professor of paralegal studies here at MCC. Prior to my full-time work at MCC, I practiced law with a small firm in Jersey City and later with a sole practitioner in Middlesex County, concentrating in personal injury, family law, wills and estates, real property, and small business matters such as incorporations and employment contracts.
I still work as a musician; specifically as a church organist and choir director as well as the directress of an a cappella vocal ensemble.
