Dylana grew up in California and brings a unique, well-rounded background to her legal practice. She earned her undergraduate degree in Sociology and Interdisciplinary Studies from San Diego State University and her J.D. from Seattle University School of Law. Before pursuing law, she was deeply involved in theater, performing in plays, musicals, and even touring Greece at a young age—experiences that helped shape her strong communication, emotional intelligence, and courtroom presence.
Before law school, Dylana worked in childcare, developing patience and compassion that continue to inform her client-centered approach. Her interest in law was sparked during a pre-law program, followed by an internship that solidified her career path. She moved to Seattle in 2014 and quickly made it home.
During law school, Dylana participated in the Moderate Means Program, studied Comparative Family Law in Madrid, and represented clients in deportation proceedings through an Immigration Law Clinic. She began working in family law in 2015 as a Rule 9 intern and has focused exclusively on this area ever since. Having grown up in a divorced family, she brings both personal insight and strong advocacy to clients navigating difficult transitions.
Outside of work, Dylana enjoys traveling (having visited over 60 countries), yoga, meditation, reading, hiking, and spending time with loved ones.
