Before entering law school, Natalie developed a passion for helping individuals with disabilities within the school system. This passion ultimately drove her to pursue a Juris Doctorate alongside a Master’s in Public Administration, believing both degrees would provide a holistic approach to helping individuals solve their legal troubles.
During law school, Natalie prioritized coursework focusing on education law, disability rights, administrative law, and estate planning. She clerked for the Iowa State Education Association, The Harkin Institute, and spent a summer with the Legal Aid Society of Milwaukee before graduating. After returning to her home state, and becoming licensed to practice law in both Illinois and Wisconsin, Natalie joined the firm.
