In March of 2013 I began my professional career as an A
ssistant District Attorney for Steuben County, NY. Then in November of 2017
I was elected Yates County District Attorney and took Office on January of
2018. At the time I was 33 years old and was the youngest elected District
Attorney in the State. That same year I was selected as one of six countie
s in the State to pilot the Digital Evidence Management System (DEMS) for t
he New York Prosecutor’s Training Institute (NYPTI). Beginning in 2019 I ta
ught several classes to the for NYPTI and the District Attorney’s Associati
on of New York (DAASNY) on the implementation of DEMS in anticipation of co
mplying with discovery reform. I continue to train District Attorney’s Offi
ces across the State on discovery compliance and for the past three years I
have taught Assistant District Attorney’s at NYPTI’s summer college at Syr
acuse University. For a 2018 conviction and my commitment to teaching other
prosecutors, I was nominated and awarded, “Prosecutor of the Year” by the
New York Prosecutor’s Training Institute at the District Attorney’s Associa
tion of New York’s Summer Conference.
