I was born in Dallas and graduated from First
Baptist Academy in downtown Dallas. I left the great state
of Texas to attend Vanderbilt University in Nashville, Tennessee,
where I studied Psychology and Spanish; I also coached for the
equestrian team, played rugby, and planned events.
After graduation in 2006, I moved to San Diego,
California, where I studied at the University of San Diego School
of Law. While in law school I volunteered at the Tax Clinic,
the Homeless Shelter Legal Clinic, the Children's Clinic, and the
general Legal Clinic at school. I also worked in felony
arraignment for the San Diego Public Defender's Office and
mediated at the San Diego Small Claims Court. In the spring
of 2009, I became a National Finalist in the American Bar
Association Negotiation Tournament, finishing in the top 20.
I graduated in May of 2009, moved back to Texas, and passed the
bar in November.
In February 2010, I was hired by Level 2 Review
in Tyler, Texas, to work on discovery. I worked on many
cases for Fortune 50 companies on issues from litigation to
mergers and FTC compliance investigations. I became a Lead
Associate where I continued to work on discovery and create
privilege logs and recommendations to counsel and began to manage
projects.
After I left Level 2 Review, I returned to
Dallas and accepted a position with Withers & Withers, P.C.
I am honored to work with a firm that has a great reputation and
respected, knowledgeable attorneys. I currently handle cases
in the area of Family Law.
I am a member of the Dallas Bar Association,
Dallas Association of Young Lawyers, Texas Young Lawyers
Association, American Bar Association, and the Young Lawyers
Division of the American Bar Association. This year I was
selected as part of the 2011 Dallas Association of Young Lawyers
Leadership Class where I serve on the steering committee.
I also participate in community groups such as Dallas Young
Professionals, Dallas Independent School District E-Mentoring
Program, Lakewood Women in Business, Park Cities Women in
Business, Greater East Dallas Chamber of Commerce, and the
Ferguson Road Initiative.
