Social Security
I was raised in San Antonio, Texas, where I played & marched in my high school band, rode & showed a family friend's Arabian horse, and somehow survived my hair and fashion choices of the 1980s. I still, however, firmly adore and defend the decade's music. I attended Texas A&M University in College Station for my undergraduate degree and all of the enriching non-academic "education" that being a Fightin' Texas Aggie involves. I helped build Bonfires. I sang in the Aggie Women's Chorus. I pledged a sorority. I spent my senior summer interning with the Walt Disney World College Program in Orlando, Florida. In case you're wondering, yes-- it was pretty magical! Also, making soft pretzels and serving ice-cream in Pinocchio Village-themed lederhosen all Florida Summer long is exhausting. In 1996 I moved to Austin where I spent the next ten years with companies including Dell, Inc., Four Seasons Hotels, and AT&T Wireless. I worked in a variety of sales, customer service, and tech support roles. Then, in a plot twist that would change my future path, I earned my paralegal certificate and took a job as a case manager for a local Social Security disability attorney. I heard things. I saw things, I learned things. About how very broken our Social Security disability system is. That experience revealed the prevalent need for Social Security disability claimant representation and led me to attend Texas Wesleyan University School of Law in Ft. Worth-- now Texas A&M School of Law. Since becoming licensed to practice in 2010, I have exclusively represented disability claimants through the SSA's administrative appeals process. Previously, I served people living in Texas. Now in our post-Covid world, I can represent clients not only in Texas but several other states as well, through remote telephonic and video hearing appearances.

My Interest in criminal law is rooted in one thing -- my desire to help people. I grew up in Midland, Texas, where I received a bachelor's degree in criminology from the University of Texas. Later, I was awarded an academic scholarship to the Thomas M. Cooley Law School in Lansing, Michigan, where I made the Dean's List and honor roll and received my law degree. After completing a comprehensive internship at the East Lansing, Michigan, firm of Bodwin & Fuzak, P.C., I worked as a civil contract attorney for Daffer McDaniel, LLP in Austin, Texas on a large class action lawsuit. Afterward, I served as a criminal and family law attorney at an established law firm in Georgetown, Texas. The latter experience found me defending clients on the wide spectrum of criminal law charges I address in my current independent practice. My success in this area included helping clients suffering from mental illness receive a verdict of not guilty by reason of insanity. The tremendous experience and knowledge I gained in daily negotiations with local prosecutors and courts combined with my ongoing desire to help people protect their liberties in the face of criminal charges now drive everything I do in my own law office. I truly believe that you deserve the best legal representation you can get -- and that's what I provide.
