I was born and raised in Murfreesboro, Tennessee and attended Middle Tennessee State University where I received my Bachelor's Degree.  After college I enlisted in the U.S. Marine Corps Reserve and continued my training during my time in Law School until my enlistment ended in 2015.  I attended law school at the Cecil C. Humphreys School of Law at University of Memphis.

While attending law school, I clerked for the Shelby County Public Defender’s Office and the Shelby County District Attorney’s Office.  Upon graduation, I returned to Murfreesboro to serve as law clerk to Judge J. Mark Rogers in the Circuit Court of Rutherford County, Tennessee, which gave me significant experience in civil litigation matters as well as many hours spent in the courtroom.

I joined Bennett & Michael as an associate attorney in 2015, where I focus mainly on civil litigation and criminal defense cases.  I am also a  volunteer for the Tennessee Achieves program where I mentor high school seniors to help prepare them for post secondary education as part of the new state initiative to increase enrollment in post secondary programs such as trade schools and Associates Degree programs around Tennessee.
