Attorney Profile
I graduated summa cum laude from Notre Dame College with a Bachelor of Science in Nursing and began my career as a Registered Nurse. I spent eight years at the bedside in a Neonatal Intensive Care Unit at a large urban hospital system. While practicing as a nurse, I obtained my Master of Science in Nursing Education and took on several leadership roles, serving as the Neonatal ICU Education Coordinator, Chair of a hospital-wide nursing committee for nightshift nurses, and long-time member of the hospital’s Professional Practice Council. I was awarded the Outstanding Achievement in Nursing Education and Professional Practice Award, and the National Nurse DAISY Award for exemplifying extraordinary advocacy for a critically ill newborn with congenital glaucoma.
My time as a Registered Nurse, along with my inspiring patients, led me back to school once more. I am currently attending the University of Akron School of Law and expect to receive my Juris Doctor and Litigation Certificate in 2025. I have previously served as the Secretary of the University of Akron Health Law Society, and I am a member of the University of Akron School of Law Trial Team. I have been honored to receive the CALI Excellence for the Future Award in several courses, including Torts, Legal Research and Writing, Evidence, Professional Responsibility, Constitutional Law and Criminal Law. I am excited to transition from legal nurse to trial lawyer at The Becker Law Firm upon my graduation.
I am a proud, busy mom of two boys, and our family loves to travel and explore the outdoors at different campgrounds throughout Ohio. I also enjoy reading, watching anything sports-related and going to concerts.
