I was born on August 8, 1977, in Alexandria, Virginia. My family is originally from Argentina, both my parents having immigrated to the United States in 1976. I grew up in varying parts of the country, including Pittsburgh, Philadelphia, Washington D.C., Boston, and Houston.
In 1999, I obtained my Bachelor of Arts degree in Psychology with a Spanish minor, from the University of Texas at Austin. In 2002, I obtained my J.D. with a concentration in General Civil Litigation from Baylor Law School in Waco, Texas.
I then moved back to Austin and practiced with the law firm of Burns, Anderson, Jury & Brenner, L.L.P. for approximately three years, working in the areas of general litigation, insurance practices and coverage, mold, complex commercial litigation, workers compensation, railroad, and toxic exposure involving Toluene diisocyanate, mold, and diesel exhaust.
Since 2005, I have successfully represented individuals who have suffered an injury or other loss as a result of the irresponsibility of another.
I am married to a wonderful and supportive wife and have two high-energy toddlers at home. In my spare time (when I have some), I enjoy making homebrewed beer, camping with my family, and bbq.
