Bridging business acumen and legal scholarship — from entrepreneurship to the courtroom.

A multidimensional
legal professional.

I'm a JD Candidate at Suffolk University Law School, currently serving as a Litigation & Legal Intern at Denner Lamanna in Boston. A Trustee Merit Scholar and recipient of an Honorable Mention for Oral Advocacy, I bring rigorous analytical thinking to every matter.

Before law school, I built a decade-long track record in business strategy, operations, and consulting — founding L. Boyer & Associates to empower early-stage startups, managing complex projects at Shadow Fight Goods, and directing operations at BostonApartments.com.

My focus area is business law and litigation, and I'm driven by the intersection of entrepreneurial thinking and legal precision. I'm a member of the Boston Bar Association and Massachusetts Bar Association, and active in the Real Estate Law Society at Suffolk.
