About Caroline

When I went to my college orientation, I knew right then that I wanted to be an attorney.  I never varied from my path and was thankful that so early on I discovered exactly what I wanted to do.   I am in a law practice that I love and work with two great attorneys, Rex and Kelly.  I enjoy working with people and helping them when they have been the victim of a medical malpractice claim.  My staff and our nurses are the best. 

I am blessed with a wonderful husband and two sons.  I love to read, play tennis, walk and am involved in women's Bible studies.
