Biography

As a licensed attorney in Tennessee since 2000, I have always focused my practice as an advocate for families, specifically children.   I have represented families in many counties in middle Tennessee for over two decades.  I am a fellow in the Academy of Adoption & Assisted Reproduction Attorneys (AAAA).   My practice has evolved to focus on adoptions, as I have seen the need for permanency for children. I currently handle many types of adoptions (whether voluntary consents or involuntary terminations), ICPCs, and family mediations.  I was privileged to serve as the Chair for the TBA Adoption Law Section from 2021-2022 and continue to serve in the section as an active member in lobbying for improvements in adoption laws for Tennessee.
