Perseverance is the adjective, or maybe verb, that best describes who I am. I am a person of perseverance. I have spent most of my personal and professional life supporting others in their journeys of perseverance. Prior to becoming an attorney, I was a mental health therapist. Through that work, I was fortunate to be able to support people during their most vulnerable times of life. As a therapist, I experienced the great possibilities that come with hope and change.

My desire to become an attorney was rooted in being a contributor to positive change. To practice law is an incredible opportunity because law impacts every aspect of our society. I work diligently to master the practice of law so that my work will benefit not only my clients, but society as a whole.

For fun, I absolutely LOVE music. I enjoy all genres of music. I also love to sing and dance. Although I’m not sure how great I am at either. I enjoy exercising. I am a certified Spin instructor. I teach Spin classes a few times a week at my local gym.

I am the mother of two teenage girls. I work hard to make sure that my children are proud of me. What I want my girls to say most about me is that I am kind and that I am always striving to be a better human being. My life journey is shared with my husband, Aundre and my girls, Kennedy & Sydney. And with this comes for me a stronger sense of responsibility to be an active contributor to fostering positive change. My daughters have often asked me what is it that I do when I go to work. I sigh and tell them that mommy is a change agent. I help make things better for people.
