About

My experience navigating Vermont’s complex regulatory environment assists the Stitzel, Page & Fletcher, P.C., in providing a broad range of services to its local government, institutional and educational clients. I am well-versed in addressing real estate, environmental, and zoning and land use permitting issues and in litigating commercial, land development and real estate disputes in Vermont’s state and federal courts. I also serve the Firm’s public clients by managing complex financial, real estate and environmental permitting transactions, including low-income and senior housing projects funded with community development block grants; flood hazard mitigation property acquisitions; “brownfield” and contaminated property redevelopment; road, stormwater and other infrastructure improvement projects; agricultural, forest and open space conservation ventures; and recreational trail and land trust acquisitions. Prior to joining Stitzel, Page & Fletcher, P.C., I was associated with another Burlington law firm, where I counseled private clients in environmental, zoning and land use permitting and in commercial litigation. Before moving to private practice, I served as a law clerk to the Honorable Merideth Wright and the Honorable Thomas S. Durkin at the Vermont Environmental Court. I received my J.D., cum laude, from Vermont Law School in 2004, where I was a Note Editor for the Vermont Law Review and a member of the Moot Court Advisory Board. In 2001, I received his bachelor’s degree in American History from Northwestern University. I am a member of the Vermont Planners Association Executive Committee, as well as the American Bar Association, the Vermont Bar Association and the Chittenden County Bar Association. From 2012 to 2014, I served as the American Bar Association’s Young Lawyers Division District 1 Representative, representing the young lawyers divisions of both the Vermont and Maine Bar Associations.
