My passion for legal work commenced in 1999 when I worked for the Lewiston District Court as a CMO/Family Law Coordinator. I later immersed myself in legal work for over a year for John Jenness, Esq. as his Office Manager/Legal Secretary. I worked my way up from District Court Clerk to Legal Secretary to Legal Assistant to Paralegal. I delved into the areas of Estate Planning, Family Law, Real Estate Law, Criminal Prosecution (US Attorney’s Office internship), Criminal Defense (Strike, Goodwin & O’Brien) and Personal Injury Paralegal for Insurance Defense and on the other side for a Plaintiff’s firm. I obtained my Bachelor of Science degree Summa Cum Laude from Husson College in 2005. I worked in the legal realm for several years and started graduate school in January 2022, after being accepted to the one and only prestigious law school I applied to, which is Cornell Law School. In August 2024, I will be graduating from Cornell Law School with my Juris Master’s in Legal Studies. I currently have high honors. My career goal is either Law Firm Administration or Virtual Call Center Regulatory Management. In addition to my legal career, I have worked as an Upgraded Supervisor for a Call Center for nearly four years. My additional hobbies are being a Federalist Society member, American Legion Women’s Auxiliary for over twenty-five years, 1000 Dreams Fund Student Advisory Board, Maine Notary Public since 2001, Zumba Instruction, reading case law and spending time with my family and bunnies. I strive to obtain justice for those who need it in a professional, empathetic, and dedicated mannerism.
