  Associate attorney

  I help clients navigate the full spectrum of estate planning needs and chart their course through the process with the use of a full range of planning tools, from the simple to the more complex. I pride myself on making what can often be perceived as a daunting and emotionally fraught process much more pleasant and efficient than anticipated. In addition to spending one-on-one time with my clients crafting the plan that will work best for them, I also enjoy developing educational opportunities for members of my community to help them better understand the estate planning process and how it can benefit them and their families.I am available to meet with clients at both our Pittsboro Office and our Raleigh Office.
