Amanda first started in the field of family law 2010 as an intern at a prominent firm while attending the Georgia Institute of Technology for her undergraduate degree. After graduating from Georgia Tech, she left to pursue her law degree at the Charleston School of Law.
During her first and second years of law school, Amanda worked extensively with Charleston Pro Bono Legal Services (CPBLS) helping pro se litigants to prepare and file divorce, child custody and visitation documents. Volunteering at CPBLS only enhanced Amanda's passion for the field of family law and her desire to help others. During her final year of law school, Amanda interned at a prominent family law practice in Mount Pleasant, South Carolina where she gained in-depth knowledge of child custody proceedings and had the opportunity to work one-on-one with a number of clients. Upon earning her law degree, Amanda returned home to Georgia. Amanda has been practicing family law exclusively since February 2015, and was recently awarded the Super Lawyers "Rising Star" award for 2022.
Amanda currently resides in Forsyth County with her husband and their two children.
