I have been praticing law since 2000. Prior to opening my own law firm, I worked at the Montgomery County Prosecutor's Office in Dayton, Ohio where I was a successful trial attorney responsible for all phases of the prosecution of adults and juveniles charged with felony and misdemeanor crimes. Before joining the Montgomery County Prosecutor's Office, I worked for a mid-size law firm in Cincinnati, Ohio where I zealously represented clients in class action, employment, labor, discriminatory housing, predatory lending, contract and tort lawsuits.

I earned my law degree at The George Washington University Law School where I clerked for the United States Department of Justice in Washington, D.C. and the Hamilton County Public Defender's Office in Cincinnati, Ohio. I received my undergraduate degree in International Affairs from the University of Cincinnati, where I interned for the Ohio Attorney General's Office, Senator John Glenn's Congressional Office and was a member of several honor societies.

I am admitted to practice law in Ohio, Kentucky*, the United States Supreme Court, the United States District Court for the Southern District of Ohio, and the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Kentucky.

I live in Washington Township, Ohio with my husband, two children, two dogs and a cat. I am a member of the National Association of Consumer Bankruptcy Attorneys, the American Bankruptcy Law Forum and the Kentucky Bar Association. In addition, I recently completed a year of service as the Chair of the Dayton Bar Association's Juvenile Law Committee.
