About

Caroline brings a deliberate focus to listening and understanding her client’s goals and concerns. Recognizing her role as a Family Law attorney is to help people navigate the legal system in pursuit of their goals as they relate to family and loved ones. Her greatest strength as an attorney is empathy and she believes that preparation and a sincere and concerted effort to understand a person’s hopes, fears, and goals—during what is often a difficult time in their life—is critical to being a great attorney.Caroline received a Juris Doctorate from Lewis and Clark Law School, graduating a semester early in January 2019. She served as the law school's American Bar Association (ABA) Representative during her last year in law school, and earned the title of "Most Creative Rep" among all of the ABA reps in the country in 2019. She received a Bachelor of Arts in Economics from Willamette University in 2016 as a member of Phi Beta Kappa, and graduated with honors from the Economics department.When she’s not working, you’ll likely find Caroline in the great PNW outdoors; running hiking and Climbing Mt. Hood, Mt. Adams, and Mt. St. Helens. Her life motto was given to her by her favorite childhood character, the great Winnie the Pooh: “You are braver than you believe, stronger than you seem, and smarter than you think.”
