Born in Waxahachie, Texas before the earth cooled (1965). Graduated from University of Houston in 1988 with a B.S., in Political Science. Received J.D. from South Texas College of Law in November of 1991. I competed in national mock trial competitions, so I stepped out of law school trained as an active litigator from day one. I had my first jury trial within first six months, which I won. After practicing law in the Houston area for twelve years, I relocated back to the DFW metroplex. My practice is dedicated to family law litigation. I have a proven track record of success in both settling cases for my clients in mediation and in litigating those cases that need final trials. I've been able to balance my practice and personal life, leaving time to give back to the community.
