Estate Planning with You At The Heart
Founded in 2023, Heartwood Law started with a simple belief: estate planning should be proactive, personalized, and centered around you.
There’s No One-Size-Fits-All Approach To Estate Planning
Just like every person and family has their own story, your estate plan should reflect your unique values and aspirations. At Heartwood Law, we believe the best estate plan is one that truly reflects who you are and what you value most.

Here, we plan for life, not just for death,
AND PROMISE TO GUIDE YOU THROUGH EVERY STEP WITH CLARITY AND COMPASSION.
The Heart Behind Heartwood
Before entering the legal field, I served as a Cryptologic Linguist in the U.S. Air Force—a role that honed my attention to detail, problem-solving skills, and dedication to protecting what matters most.
After graduating from Chicago-Kent College of Law in 2004, I explored various roles within the legal field. It soon became apparent that traditional law firms often prioritized billable hours and open-ended cases over achieving meaningful outcomes for clients.
With me, you have a trusted partner who prioritizes your peace of mind and protects your legacy.
When I’m not guiding clients through their estate planning journey, you may find me in the great outdoors. Seattle is where I call home, alongside my husband, Stephen, and our adventurous dog, Blanca. I look forward to welcoming you to the Heartwood family.
Knowledge is Power. We Will Equip You for Every Stage.
