Biography

Throughout my life, a word often used to describe me has been “creative.” I was voted Most Creative in both middle and high school and have held a lifelong passion for the creative process, whether it be through the visual arts, written word or music.

I was born and raised in Tuscaloosa, Alabama. After graduating high school in 2007, I attended the College of Charleston in Charleston, South Carolina, with the intention of majoring in studio art and my eyes set on pre-med. But, after taking my first philosophy course during the first semester of my freshman year, I shifted to a philosophy major with a minor in studio art. I appreciated that there were others like me who liked to argue, I mean debate, for the sake of good conversation.

Law was a natural progression from philosophy, with its emphasis on dissecting and developing arguments, research, and analysis. As it turns out, law is also in my blood. My grandfather and uncle owned a law firm and practiced together for 35 years in my hometown before retiring. Upon graduating college, I felt that I needed more real-world experience before I could adequately represent clients in the legal field. I moved to Los Angeles for four years. I worked full time, sometimes two or three jobs at once, and devoted most of my free time to creating art and vending as many events as I could.

I finally felt ready to take the plunge with law school in the spring of 2017. With my tutor’s help, countless hours of studying, and the grace of God, I managed to secure a full tuition scholarship to Cumberland School of Law in Birmingham, Alabama. During law school, I served as President of both the Cumberland Society of the Arts and the Cumberland Environmental Law Society.

After graduating from Cumberland in 2020 and passing the Alabama State Bar, I began my legal career in Huntsville, where my law practice centered around real estate, probate and civil litigation. I am thrilled to grow my legal practice in Tennessee!
