She began her legal career as a commercial litigator at a large Austin law firm, gaining valuable experience in litigation and business matters. After spending several years at home raising her children, she returned to the practice of law and transitioned into Family Law. She has since been recognized as a Texas Monthly “Super Lawyer” each year since 2015 and by Best Lawyers since 2019.
