I was born and raised in Saline County, and have spent my legal career practicing in West-Central Missouri. My time working with the State Public Defender gave me invaluable trial experience and the opportunity to work with prosecutors, judges, court personnel and other attorneys in various jurisdictions in Mid-Missouri. I believe in a straight forward approach to counseling clients and resolving legal issues. I understand the uncertainty and anxiety that comes with being involved in litigation. We strive to provide direct and experienced representation while remaining sensitive to the emotions our clients are experiencing.
I continue to live in rural Saline County with my husband and our four children.
