About Me
I am a licensed attorney with 19 years of experience in diverse areas of law. After practicing law for many years, I shifted my focus toward personalized health and business coaching services. I then developed a successful health and business coaching practice. With a deep passion for both law and wellness, I offer a unique combination of legal expertise and holistic coaching services. Let’s work together to create a plan that aligns with your values and goals.
Background
Education
My dedication to the legal field began early on, as demonstrated in my educational background. I earned my B.A. in English/Prelaw from Auburn University, and followed that with my time at Cumberland School of Law. I then graduated with my J.D. and began my professional career in the legal field.
Early Career
My professional life after graduating from Cumberland School of Law led me to Mobile, Alabama. I spent some time practicing in Mobile before practicing in Birmingham, and finally opening my own practice in North Alabama. My now 19+ years of experience includes Wills & Estate Planning, Probate, Business Law (corporate formation and litigation), Personal Injury (automobile accidents, product liability, and tort claims), and Uncontested Divorce. I’ve also worked with federal housing law and compliance, and represented clients in subrogation cases. Additionally, my practice has included handling real estate closings, insurance defense, and providing legal services in both trial and appellate courts, including cases before the Alabama Supreme Court.
Entrepreneurship
After pivoting my professional career towards an entreprenurial direction, I became the owner and a top-performing coach at Center for Transformation, LLC, where I have been providing health and business coaching since 2017. Through my coaching practice, I helped individuals and professionals achieve their wellness, personal, and business goals by providing tailored coaching and support. I quickly became one of the top 1.06% of over 41,000 coaches worldwide. My work included guiding clients one-on-one in developing healthier lifestyles, improving fitness, managing stress, and achieving mental clarity.
Today...
I take a thorough, detail-oriented approach to every case, prioritizing clear and effective communication to ensure my clients fully understand their options. With a broad legal background, I offer tailored solutions for a wide range of legal matters, from estate planning to business law. In addition to my legal practice, I provide business and health coaching, helping my clients to navigate challenges, grow strategically, and achieve balance in both their businesses and personal well-being. I believe that health, legal, and business success are closely interconnected, and I support clients in optimizing success in all aspects of their lives.
My Mission
At the heart of my work as both an attorney and a health & business coach, my mission is to serve others with integrity, compassion, and excellence. As a Christian, I am dedicated to using the gifts and expertise God has entrusted to me to help individuals and families navigate life’s challenges with confidence and clarity. Whether providing trusted legal counsel or empowering clients to achieve their health and business goals, my goal is to inspire transformation in the lives of those I serve through a commitment to service, honesty, and a deep respect for each person’s unique journey.
