I dreamed of being a lawyer from a young age. I feel privileged to practice in a profession I love. I also feel privileged to use my law degree and skills acquired in the education arena too, as I am also a former Adjunct Professor at the Univerity of Cincinnati and currently the Program Coordinator for the Paralegal Program at Gateway Community and Technical College.
In my free time I enjoy spending time with my son, reading, hiking and otherwise being outdoors.

Her confidence and comfort level in the courtroom is impressive to say the least. She was assertive, not the slightest bit apprehensive about speaking...

Carol is wonderful!
Carol is professional and knowledgeable. She did a great job for me concerning my child support case. It's a great feeling to know that you have a lawyer that you can trust and that will go above and beyond to make sure the job is done and done right!
