Prior Experience

Prior to joining the firm, AnneMarie served as a law clerk to the Honorable Johnathan A. Kobes of the US Court of Appeals for the Eighth Circuit and interned for the Honorable Stephen R. Clark of the US District Court for the Eastern District of Missouri.

AnneMarie gained experience during law school in both private practice and academic settings. She was a senior editor for Washington University Law Review and worked as a research assistant to Professor John Inazu, editing scholarly publications and researching the right of assembly. She was also a project manager for the Legal Vocation Fellowship, a nonprofit designed to help early-career attorneys.

These experiences have provided AnneMarie with insight into judicial decision-making and have helped her develop a strong foundation in appellate advocacy, brief writing, and legal research.

Personal Interests

Outside of the office, AnneMarie tries to spend as much time as possible exploring. She enjoys finding new running trails, taste-testing local bakeries, and traveling to visit friends and family around the country. Born and raised in Saint Paul, she is happy to be back closer to family after living in South Carolina, Missouri, and South Dakota.
