Peggy received her law degree from the John Marshall Law School in Chicago, Illinois. She continually attends legal educational and practice seminars to stay abreast of the numerous, complex and ever- evolving laws that affect the aging population.

Peggy has been a licensed and practicing Professional Registered Nurse since 1975 and has many years of experience as a medical case manager.  This work involved the coordination and transition of catastrophically ill or injured patients through the continuum of care, for both short-term and long-term medical and rehabilitative services. Additionally, she has nearly two decades of experience within the industry of health insurance and benefit administration. She received a Bachelor of Science degree in Business Administration from Elmhurst College in 1999. 

Peggy's first exposure to Elder Law occurred in the mid 1980's when she attended an educational seminar presented by one of the first practicing Elder Law attorneys in the Chicago Metropolitan area. At that time, Peggy was involved with an organization that devoted its efforts toward patient quality of care and access to care issues, especially as related to the older population. She also served as a Parish Nurse for her church in the Mid 1990's. These experiences laid the groundwork for subsequent pursuits, educationally and professionally, allowing her to fulfill her desire to provide meaningful and helpful services to and for clients who are anticipating and approaching their later years. She continues to have strong ties within the medical community and serves as a member of the DuPage Senior Citizens Council Health Committee. 

Peggy provides Elder Law services because she derives great satisfaction from helping people as they grow older, to make informed and beneficial legal decisions. The practice of Elder Law allows a unique and rewarding opportunity for Peggy to refocus and perpetuate her personal mission to provide caring service to this population of clients for whom she has previously cared and nurtured as patients.
