My interest in legal writing dates back to law school, where I served as a moot-court teaching assistant, helping other students hone their brief-writing skills.  Since my graduation in 1990, I have been practicing law in New Orleans.  I started out as a general litigator, but over the years have gravitated toward appellate advocacy.  Today, I am with Adams and Reese LLP, as a member of the Appellate Advocacy Team.  To see my page on the Adams and Reese web site, click here.
 
I also teach an undergraduate English course in legal writing for the University of New Orleans.
 
My other web project is Minor Wisdom, a blog where I write about legal writing or whatever else is on my mind.
