In 1995 I moved from Texas to Washington to attend law school at Seattle University School of Law, graduating in 1998 Cum Laude. During my years of law school, I fell in love with Washington and its amazing scenery, diversity and people. While going to school in Texas, I worked as a bankruptcy paralegal for an attorney in Fort Worth, TX. Then I worked for a Seattle Chapter 7 Trustee while I was in law school. In November 1998, I began practicing law, primarily focusing on bankruptcy law. My experience working directly with clients as a paralegal and then with a Chapter 7 Trustee provides an invaluable added perspective of the bankruptcy process. Since 2008, my practice has been devoted to consumer bankruptcy cases, serving clients in the Lewis, Thurston, Mason, Grays Harbor and Pierce Counties. Cases from these counties are all filed and heard at the US Bankruptcy Court in Tacoma, WA.
