About Me
I am a Greensboro native and recently returned to North Carolina with my husband. Prior to joining Brooks Pierce, I practiced at a preeminent global firm in New York City, where I had the opportunity to represent clients on high-profile, novel cases. I also had the privilege of serving with the Federal Defenders of New York and functioning as in-house legal counsel for a multinational bank.
Throughout my career, I have been active in pro bono work, mentoring, and outreach programs. I want to continue to make a meaningful impact as an attorney in Greensboro.
I joined Brooks Pierce because its adherence to the highest standards, culture of collaboration, and generalist approach align with my own values and dedication to professional excellence.
