Biography
Born and raised in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, Jeannette earned her Bachelor of Science degree in Elementary Education magna cum laude from Lincoln University. She went on to pursue a Master of Arts degree in Education and worked as an elementary school teacher in Guilford County Schools for over a decade, where she took on leadership roles and served on school and district committees advocating for students, teachers, and resources. Through these experiences, she found her passion for being an advocate for children and families.
To follow her dreams, Jeannette enrolled in Elon University School of Law and obtained her Juris Doctor degree. During her time in law school, she was a Leadership Fellow, Student Mentor, Moot Court board member, and a court-appointed Guardian ad Litem volunteer. Her pro bono work during law school earned her the North Carolina State Bar Annual Student Pro Bono Service Award at graduation. Jeannette interned at Legal Aid of N.C., the Guilford County Public Defender’s Office, and the Guilford County District Judges’ Office.
After graduating, Jeannette worked as a family law attorney at Dummit Fradin, Attorneys at Law. She gained valuable experience in various family law matters, including divorce, child custody, child support, equitable distribution, and separation agreements. She continues to practice family law at Woodruff Family Law Group in Greensboro, N.C.
In her free time, Jeannette enjoys attending church, volunteering at schools, traveling the world, and spending time with her loved ones.
