What is your favorite thing about the law?
The law, and those in the legal profession, provide clients with a voice, allowing their wants and needs to be heard. For me, it is an honor to represent someone, to speak for them, and to argue to the best of my ability for their case.
What was your first job?
I first worked as a nanny - it taught me how to listen and communicate in ways I couldn’t even imagine.
What are your hobbies?
Outdoor activities, traveling and FSU football
What advice would you give to a young student in law school?

How do you define a “good day?”
