In May 2005, I graduated from Seton
Hall Law School, in Newark, NJ. I'm very happy with the education I
received at Seton Hall.
After taking the NJ Bar Exam in late July, I will begin a one-year
clerkship with Judge Kuskin, a judge for the New Jersey Tax Court. After
that, I plan on getting my LLM in Taxation.
