About

I began my career as a Bankruptcy Paralegal in 1996.  I worked for several years as a case analyst for the Chapter 12 and 13 Bankruptcy Trustees and, while working and raising a family, I earned my Bachelor’s in Business Administration from Davenport University and then went on to graduate from Thomas M. Cooley Law School with her Juris Doctorate in May 2007.  I have spent the past seven and a half years representing debtors in bankruptcy cases both in the Western and Eastern Districts of Michigan. I am a member of the National Association of Consumer Bankruptcy Attorneys and is also an Officer and a member of the Board of Directors for the Debtors Bar of West Michigan.  I has served as a panelist at the Debtors Bar of West Michigan Winter Seminar and the Federal Bar Association Bankruptcy Seminar.I am a managing Partner at Apple Street Law Office, P.L.C. out of Hastings, Michigan, where I continue to represent debtors in chapter 7, 12, and 13 bankruptcy proceedings. I also assists persons who have been denied Social Security Disability benefits, represent clients in divorce matters, civil actions, estate planning, and defending adults and juveniles charged with criminal offenses.I am the defense attorney on the steering committee for Barry County District Court Sobriety Court, and I am an active member of the Barry County Bar Association and the Kiwanis Club of Hastings.   I love to volunteer teaching fourth grade children to run a mock trial on Law Day and to assist people through Barry County’s Legal Advice Clinic.
