A University of Notre Dame alumna, Lynn graduated from the University of North Carolina School of Law with high honors in 1990.  She then started her litigation career at Smith, Keefe, Conti & Moraghan, LLC, in Torrington, where she practiced criminal and personal injury law for six years.  She then joined the litigation department at Shipman & Goodwin, LLC, before becoming a member of the Connecticut Office of the Attorney General’s where she served for over 25 years.  Lynn defended the State and its employees from a variety of litigation matters in both state and federal trial and appellate courts, including the United States Supreme Court, as well as administrative agencies.  She focused on constitutional and health issues.

In 2014, Lynn came to UConn Health as an Assistant Attorney General, defending and advising on employment and other litigation matters until her retirement in 2022, when she became Senior Health Counsel for UConn Health.  She is thrilled to now be an official member of the UConn Health team.
