Q: Why did you become an Employment Advocate?
A: As much as I love the law, I knew practicing was just not for me. When I saw the number of qualified attorneys who were struggling to find legal positions I found it very frustrating and I knew I wanted to help. This job is one that allows me to combine my background in psychology with my law degree while assisting attorneys in achieving their career goals.

Q: What advice would you give attorneys who are thinking about using Legal Authority?
A: Legal Authority provides a great service; it is one I personally recommend to my attorney friends. If you have any questions about the service, please do not hesitate to give me a call.

Q: What is the one thing your clients would not know about you?
A: I have 20/15 vision. If you have 20/20 vision, it means that when you stand 20 feet away from an eye chart you can see what the "normal" human being can see. A person with 20/15 vision can see at 20 feet what a "normal" person can see when standing 15 feet away from the chart.

Q: Anything else interesting going on in your life?
