I came to the practice of law by a circuitous route and relatively late in life following a series of earlier careers. My first real job was at the Pearl Brewing Company and I made my way up to the position of Executive Secretary to the President. I became pregnant with my first child around the time Pear Brewing Company was sold, so I then became a stay-at-home mom/volunteer/school board member during the time my three daughters attended St. Luke's Catholic School. By then I was ready to re-enter the paid workforce and I decided to listen to an inner voice that had been urging me for some time to look at a law career. I got a job in a law firm as a secretary while taking night classes and soon became a Certified Legal Assistant focusing in civil litigation and worked in that field for ten years before deciding to make the leap from legal assistant to lawyer. I took the LSAT and applied to several Texas law schools, not sure if any of them would be interested in having a middle-aged grandmother attending their esteemed institutions. Happily, I heard from several and I happily attended the Texas Tech University School of Law and the Rawls School of Business from 2004 to 2007, earning joint degrees of a Juris Doctorate and MBA. Since 2007 I have operated as a solo practitioner focusing in the area of wills, trusts and probate as well as small business start-ups.. I am the mother of three beautiful daughters and grandmother of three incredible youngsters. I am also the proud mom of four cats and grandmother to a spoiled Husky named Gypsy. When I'm not working I read incessantly, knit whenever I can find the time, love eating out with my friends and having my grandkids over to play.

In addition to being licensed as an attorney in Arizona, I have been licensed as a Certified Public Accountant (CPA) in Arizona for over ten years.. I was not licensed to practice law in Arizona until two years after graduation from law school.  I was deployed to Afghanistan as part of Operation Enduring Freedom shortly after graduating law school and thus was not able to complete the bar exam until after my service overseas was completed.

Within a month after graduating with a double major in accounting and finance from a small, relatively unknown college in a small, relatively unknown town, I moved to Dallas, Texas and secured an entry-level position in the tax department of what was then known as a "Big Eight" accounting firm (then Touche Ross, now Deloitte & Touche). At the time, almost all of the people I worked with and for had their Masters in Tax or a law degree. All were CPAs. I was told that in order to advance, I would have to pass the CPA exam and either get a Masters in Tax or attend law school. I passed the CPA exam and worked for Touche Ross for about 3 years. I took some graduate level courses during this time at the University of North Texas, but hadn't committed to a Masters in Tax program.Frustrated that others with advanced degrees were being promoted ahead of me, I accepted a job offer to be the Federal Tax Manager for Southwestern Bell Mobile Systems, one of the first cellular phone companies. I also decided that I would take the LSAT and apply to law school.After 4 1/2 years of professional work experience, I started law school. I loved law school! I made the Law Review and became its Managing Editor in my third year. I was also a student member of a new organization: the Association for Women Attorneys.I clerked at Hanover, Walsh, Jalenak & Blair the summer before I graduated and was offered an associate's position. At Hanover Walsh I learned everything from preparing pleadings to arguing motions to attending union meetings. I handled divorce matters, prepared wills and trusts, and administered probate estates. In addition to continuing on with the Association for Women Attorneys, I became an associate member of the first class of the Leo S. Bearman Inn of Court.For 20 years I have been a solo practitioner in Shelby County, Tennessee. I am also a Rule 31 Listed Family and Civil Mediator.
