“Becoming a Judge has been my dream ever since I began working as a law clerk in the Cook County State’s Attorney’s Office over 18 years ago. Public service and justice are my passions. Reflecting on the values my immigrant single mother and grandparents raised me with, I chose to be an advocate for justice. I feel that my legal and life experiences have equipped me with the skills and knowledge to become an extraordinary judge serving the people.”
