I'm an attorney in Albuquerque New Mexico with 19 years of experience.
​
I began my career as a police officer in Clayton County, Georgia. I then went to law school at the University of Georgia, graduating in June 2005. I immediately commissioned into the United States Air Force Judge Advocates General Corps and served at the rank of Captain at Kirtland Air Force Base in Albuquerque, New Mexico and Incirlik Air Base Turkey. After completing my term of service I left the Air Force so my wife Anna could pursue her legal career in Albuquerque, and transformed myself into a civil litigator. I was an attorney at two civil litigation firms in Albuquerque from 2010 to 2018. Then I struck out my own and started Altura Law Firm with my wife Anna.
