Despite vowing to never return to St. Louis after college, here I am. I returned to St. Louis after college in DC and stayed here for law school. In between graduating from college and attending law school, I worked at Edgewood Children’s Center with physically and sexually abused children. It was this experience that first sparked my interest in family law. I wanted to choose a career that I was passionate about and that I was good at and found that fit with family law.
I have focused my practice solely on family law since graduating from law school in 2002. I have found that concentrating my practice on family law has allowed me to gain a very deep understanding of the issues and laws involved.
When I first started practicing, I only focused on traditional family law litigation in court. As I have grown in my practice, I have realized that while some cases must be litigated in court, many situations can be efficiently and effectively resolved outside of the courtroom. With this in mind, I also began working as a family law mediator and a Collaborative family law attorney.

I mostly love reading crime thrillers and mysteries.
