I'm a passionate advocate and attorney and a fellow divorcee. I've seen divorce from many angles for many years, and I'm determined to make it better for you.
I have all of the fancy legal training and experience you’d hope for in your lawyer, but I don’t wear suits and will never choose legalese over words we all understand. I graduated from my beloved UNC School of Law in 2010 and jumped right into family law practice. I'm a member of the North Carolina State Bar and North Carolina Bar Association (Family Law and Dispute Resolution sections), and work with brave, strong domestic violence victims on a pro bono basis.
I am divorced, happily remarried, mother to a spirited toddler, and inspired by everyone braving the institution of divorce. I live with my family in Durham, and work with clients in Durham, Orange, and Wake counties.
