About

After working for BMW for nearly ten years, I had the opportunity to pursue my passion for the law. I earned a B.A. from the University of North Florida in 2011 graduating Magna Cum Laude. In 2014 I received a Juris Doctor with Honors from Florida Coastal School of Law. There, I was privileged to be a member of the #1 ranked Moot Court program in the country, where I proudly contributed by winning State, Regional, and National Championships, as well as a "Best Advocate" award. I began an internship during my first semester where I remained throughout school and I am currently assisting as a non-staff attorney. Additionally, I had the honor of serving as the Law Clerk to several judges at the Duval County Courthouse, during which time I worked closely with Judge Healey on the first murder trial of Michael Dunn. I have extensive experience in many areas of law including: criminal defense; family law; general civil litigation; adoption law; and bankruptcy.
