I received my law degree from the University of North Carolina in 1978 and have been practicing ever since in Gaston County in the areas of domestic matters, personal injury, general litigation matters, and traffic matters. I reguarly appear in court for my clients.
A native of Gaston County, I hope to provide meaningful service to my community. I do this through involvement in my church, civic organizations, and by providing pro bono legal service, for which I have been consistently recognized.
