The best advice I ever received was
life is a marathon, not a sprint.
I wish I had known when I graduated law school that
learning the law was only part of what it takes to be a good lawyer.
My best stress reliever is
a book and a beach.
If I weren’t a lawyer, I’d be
a sports broadcaster.
In 2012, I’d like to
visit Ellis Island on the 100th anniversary of my great-grandfather’s arrival there from Greece.
The three words that best describe me are
passionate, patient and fair.
In my community, I’m passionate about
many things. Right now, my attention is on issues relating to access to justice and community youth sports.
In the movie about my life,
Anthony Edwards would play me.
