Naomi is an attorney advocating for youth as a part of LCYC's Youth Homelessness Program out of King County. She was drawn to the legal profession out of a conviction that everyone should have access to and understanding of the legal system and their rights. Naomi is passionate about working closely with children and youth to hear their stories and develop goals and self-advocacy strategies. She has spent much of her legal career directly delivering a variety of legal services to people at day centers and shelters addressing a wide range of issues.
