Before joining The Advocates, Destini served as a Staff Attorney at Disability Rights Oregon. There, she advocated for individuals with disabilities and worked to promote greater access, dignity, and inclusion. Her experience in disability rights strengthened her commitment to client-centered representation and reinforced her belief that effective advocacy begins with listening closely to the people most affected by legal and institutional systems.

She approaches her work with empathy, persistence, and a strong sense of justice, and she strives to ensure that every client feels heard, respected, and informed.
When not in the office, Destini enjoys adventures with her son and her Bullmatian, Nova—a half Dalmatian, half pit bull mix. She can often be found hiking, practicing yoga, paddleboarding, exploring Oregon’s rivers and forests, attending live music, writing, meditating, or planning her next outdoor adventure.
