About

I was raised in Ashtabula County, Ohio.  After graduating from Jefferson Area High School in 1982, I joined the United States Marine Corps and was stationed in Cherry Point, North Carolina.  I received an honorable discharged in 1987.  I worked as a secretary and paralegal until I went to law school in 1997.  In 2000 I went to work for Ward and Smith, P.A. in their New Bern office where I stayed for six years.  I then opened my own practice in 2006.  Since opening my practice, I have concentrated primarily on family law.  However, I also prepare estate planning documents and have recently started to incorporate elder law into my practice.
